STARDUST
by: Patricia Osborn Orton

At the end of the day
When the sun goes down
When darkness falls
And there's silence all around

Look out your window
And see if you can spy
Sprinklings of stardust
Floating from the sky.

It glitters and shines
On the grass and trees
Casting it's sparkle
Over you and me.

It settles on your eyelids
So gently, it seems,
Bringing restful sleep
And pleasant dreams.
