Night fall

Dad, Dad, the little boy cried,
Come quick, the sky is on fire.
Calm down, said his dad,
It is only the setting of the sun,
Lets go inside and have tea and a bun.
We went to the window but the sun had gone,
Suddenly the moon light shone.
Come on, his mum said, time for bed,
You need to rest your sleepy head.
