Text:
The sun slowly sets,
Goes down for the night.
All the little children are sleeping.
All except for one,
The child with the starry crayon.
As the sun sets, she slowly ...
Yawns ... stretches ... and gets out of bed.
She floats up to sit on the moon ...
To draw on the fresh piece of black paper.
She doodles all night.
Some earth people watch her,
As she draws the constellations. less
