“Cry, my brother sun,
It is a dark morning.”
Sister Moon whispers.
“Man ate all peace.
Take day & night
From the animals.”
“Show a butterfly his love; Flower,”
said he, gentle.
Cried she, “Are you MAD?!”
“Time we play is important,”
kindly he laughed
“Share. Dream. Together.”
Amy Grade 12

Through windows I see dark,
quiet whispers
ghostly dreams
little light, which was only from
the moon,
night cool as day
Mistia, Grade 8

Sister moon saw
From her castle window,
Butterfly and Frog,
Laughing at a show.
Brother sun ran in,
So fast does he run,
But when he came to see the play,
No more was the night fun
Lauren, Grade 8
