Race to the sea

I've always watched the sun set but I have never seen the moon rise. It is somewhat like a juggling act to see the bright ball of fiery gas racing towards the sea. The moon has chased it away in order to share his brilliant light in the sky. He winks at the sun and says 'the race has just begun' and with that wink bursts a thousand stars coming to life in the darkness, dancing, twinkling and twirling. The stars love the darkness that is always present at night for if the darkness was not present then who would admire their light?
