Goodnight, Little Duck

By the quiet pond, a little duck was ready for bed.

“Goodnight, water,” said the little duck. The water went still.

“Goodnight, reeds,” said the little duck. The reeds swayed, soft and slow.

“Goodnight, moon,” said the little duck. The moon smiled down, warm and bright.

The little duck tucked one foot up. Then the other. Cozy and small.

Mama duck spread a big, soft wing. “Come close, little one.”

The little duck snuggled in. Warm. Safe. Sleepy.

Goodnight, little duck. Goodnight, goodnight.

Read aloud in a warm, calm voice in the Day2Tale app — with a built-in sleep timer.
