Eclipse

The Sun and Moon -
legendary Lovers
in an exquisite turnabout dance.

Shadow and Light
turning Day in to Night
for a moment.

A chill became the air
and it strangely filled
with pause, as if

reckoning with the grave,
and the never-would-be Truth
of Life without Light.

This Cosmic alignment -
an opportunity to realign
with the Great Offering of humanity.
