Night expects day
Just as day
Expects night,
Like work shift to clock off
After handover on
Twelve hours long
And the moon
Is warned, be warned
To bear witness at night
As friends of the Sun
But not to speak of
What is seen
And the ecslipe is
Told the same
Be warned, you are warned
Recognising it was a privilege
To have been invited
To bear witness
Not a right
To have a view
And comment on what was seen
It is rude to have a view
Without a given right
To comment on what was seen
For night to be
And expect day
As welcome
And for day to be
And expect night
As welcome
