Answer:
the poet says,
.
don't be afraid of the Dark is a short poem of eight lines where the poet tells a little child, 'little one' not be afraid of the dark. Generally, small children are afraid of night because it is associated with darkness and evil. Often, the fear is unknowingly created by the elders of the family with the scary stories they tell the children. The poet thus addresses one such little child not to be afraid of the dark and explains why it is important for the night to come after day. The poet says that it is important for the sun to go down after the whole day so that the earth can take rest during the night and everyone can sleep peacefully. The poet explains that how the 'sun' can be 'harsh' by shining too strongly upon the earth but 'moonlight never' – the light of the moon is always calm and soothing, neither too bright nor too strong, relaxing our mood and giving us and there is nothing to be afraid of it. Also, unlike the morning, that herald us with the trouble thoughts and worries of the day, night is peaceful and calm as at night we can take relief from the daily work and let our 'thoughts' travel 'far' and 'near' in our dreams and just be happy. Thus there is nothing to be afraid of the dark as night is friendlier than day.
