Nestled on a Blanket of Stars

A dog and her humans are resting

until the girl begins requesting

Every book to be read

Before it’s time for bed

Thus began the endless protesting

 

Nestled on a blanket of stars

They rifle through the charming memoirs

Of monsters and muppets

And Little Ms. Tuffet

And children who live in boxcars

 

Dreamland grows near

Bedtime is here

Let’s turn out the lights

Snuggle your pup

Pretty soon you’ll be up

With the morning sun so bright
