I'm putting it here because I think it's very creative and I thought it might look less like bragging in here.
Dd1 is 8 and she has just written this in the 5 minutes' 'play-time' I gave her before bed. (She does read a lot, so it's feasible that she's got some of these images from somewhere, but I think it's rather good...)
THE NIGHT
Is a sea of darkness drowning all light
A blanket of shadows covering the sleeping day
A servant of the moon bringing starry wine to his master
A raven landing in the yellow yew tree of day-light.
The night takes many forms but above all is a dream bringer.
