Peachy sky and evening light,
Milo's garden says good night.
Moonflower opens, white and slow.
Daisies fold their petals low.
Robin settles in her nest.
Every friend gets ready to rest.
Good night, garden, soft and deep.
Flowers close and birdies sleep.
Slow your paws and dim the light.
Milo's garden says good night.
Milo puts his cup away.
Watering time is done today.
"Good night, path. Good night, tree."
Quiet grows for all to see.
Good night, garden, soft and deep.
Flowers close and birdies sleep.
Slow your paws and dim the light.
Milo's garden says good night.
By the moonflower, open wide,
Milo curls up close beside.
Peach turns purple in the sky.
One small star is shining high.
Good night, garden, soft and deep.
Now it is time for Milo to sleep.
Flowers, robin, bunny too,
Rest beneath the sky of blue.
Moonflower glows calm and bright.
Sleep well, Milo. Sweet good night.
