The Yawning Song

Yawn, yawn, goes the sleepy moon,
Night is here, not a moment too soon.
Yawn, yawn, go the twinkling stars,
Sending sleepy dust from afar.

Yawn, yawn, goes the tired old clock,
Tick-tock slowing, time to stop.
Yawn, yawn, go your toys so dear,
Settling down as sleep draws near.

Yawn, yawn, goes the house cat curled,
In dreams, she’ll prowl a moonlit world.
Yawn, yawn, goes the gentle breeze,
Rustling softly through the trees.

Yawn, yawn, it’s your turn now, child,
Let your thoughts grow soft and mild.
Yawn, yawn, feel your body rest,
Snuggled in your cozy nest.

Yawn, yawn, close your eyes so sweet,
Till morning light you’ll gently meet.
Goodnight, my love, your day is done,
Tomorrow brings more yawning fun!
