Why Does the Sun Set?

          One day there was a very lonely Sun.  He had to work all day and night to keep the earth bright and warm.  He had no friends at all.  At the end of each day he would be very tired.  “This is hard work,”he said as he shook the sweat of his head. 

          Meanwhile down on land was Ocean.  He had no family and was very lonely.  He would talk to himself and say, “I wish I had friends.” Each day he also had had to work all day. He had to let many animals use his water. 

          One day Ocean saw something bright in the sky.  To get the things attention Ocean said “WHATS YOUR NAME?

          The thing replied ‘MY NAME IS SUN.’

          After they met each other they became best friends.  Each night when everybody was asleep Sun would go down to visit Ocean.  They both would tell very interesting stories about what they do.

          Sun would say, “Up in the sky I could see many things below.”

          Ocean would say, “So many things happen in the water, there are so many fish.”  And after that, they were never lonely again.

          Now you know why sun goes down every night.  That’s why the sun sets.  To this day ocean and sun are still best friends.
