Notes
-
goodnight stars, goodnight air…
in the great green room
there was a telephone
and a red balloon
and a picture of—
the cow jumping over the moonand there were three little bears, sitting on chairs
and two little kittens and a pair of mittens
and a little toy house and a young mouse
and a comb and a brush and bowl full of mush
and a quiet old lady who was whispering “hush”goodnight room
goodnight moon
goodnight cow jumping over the moon
goodnight light and the red balloon
goodnight bears goodnight chairs
goodnight kittens goodnight mittens
goodnight clocks and goodnight socks
goodnight little house and goodnight mouse
goodnight comb and goodnight brush
goodnight nobody goodnight mush
and goodnight to the old lady whispering “hush”goodnight stars, goodnight air, goodnight noises everywhere.
- goodnight moon, margaret wise brown
