Each Night's Valentine

Doesn't the sun at night
Still permeate the earth
With light from the other side
The living-corpse of the moon
Trailing along behind
Don't the planets stop in their tracks
And the fixed stars start to dance
When the earth sends up
Its daft and dreaming souls
Tossing and turning in our beds
Each night sleep slips us
Another life among the spirits
So real and so mysterious
It takes a sun to bring us back
