👉 The middle of the night: the sixth temporal hour, equidistant between sunset and sunrise.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look, At a word that often makes us feel quite shook! “Midnight,” you see, it's more than just a chime, It’s a concept rooted in the passage of time. The dictionary gives a helpful little plea, "The middle of the night," for all to agree! Think about the sun, setting low and slow, Then darkness rising – watch the shadows grow. Midnight sits precisely halfway through, Between sunset’s fading and the morning dew. It's the sixth hour after dark, you see, A temporal marker, for you and me! So, midnight is simply twelve o'clock at night, A quiet darkness, bathed in pale moonlight. Does that make sense? Any questions to share?
