The Starry Skies Chatter

In the deep dark sky, the stars shine and sparkle high. They twinkle and giggle, winking at the moon passing by.

The night sky with twinkling Tiny sparkling friends, glowing yellow and white, smiling brightly, a big, round, smiling Big, round, silver moon with a kind, friendly face, and a dark, vast space

Each little star has a story to tell, whispering secrets to its friends so well. They pop and fizz, creating a dazzling show, making the night sky their magical glow.

A group of tiny Tiny sparkling friends, glowing yellow and white, smiling brightly talking and laughing, creating bright bursts and sparkling trails

Mr. Moon listens with his big round ear, as the stars chatter and giggle, he holds them dear. 'Shhh,' he says, 'It's time to sleep!' But the stars are too excited to slumber deep.

The big Big, round, silver moon with a kind, friendly face listening with a smile, Tiny sparkling friends, glowing yellow and white, smiling brightly chatting loudly and not ready for bedtime

Zoom, zip, zap, the stars zing and zoom, painting the sky with a magical zoom. They zip and zing, creating a celestial song, making the universe dance all night long.

Stars zooming and zipping around, leaving sparkling trails and patterns in the sky

Slowly, one by one, the stars start to yawn, their voices growing faint as the night goes on. 'Goodnight, dear stars,' the moon softly sighs, as they shimmer and twinkle, bidding the night goodbye.

Stars yawning and getting sleepy, Big, round, silver moon with a kind, friendly face smiling and saying goodnight

The night sky turns into a cozy, dark sea, as the stars drift off, dreaming happily. And in the morning, when the sun begins to rise, the stars wake up, ready to light up the skies.

Stars sleeping peacefully in a dark sky, the sun appearing on the horizon

So whenever you look up and see them so high, remember the stars in the sky talk and listen, never shy. They're your friends, twinkling from afar, filling the world with their nightly starry spar.

A child looking up at the Tiny sparkling friends, glowing yellow and white, smiling brightly, smiling and feeling happy
