Joseph May Poet Rhyme

A Cosmic Event

 Sometimes, when heavenly bodies align
 A celestial phenomena is spun
 Some say it's a sign
 When we have this total eclipse of the sun

 The path of the eclipse will pass over places called Nineveh
 Which in the bible, was a wicked city
 Where the prophet Jonah went
 and the people of Nineveh did repent

 Our brightest star
 will be eclipsed, casting dark shadows on the Earth soon
 in a cosmic event from afar
 As the sun is obscured by the moon
 But is it merely a cosmic event
 Or a sign that we should repent!

Andrea Dietrich May 15, 2024 at 1:12 PM Oh, good , I found this one that i missed somehow. I always try to see all the poems of those who normally comment to me. This was a great job. I think some people expected some weird things to happen, but nope. It was just an eclipse!

Brandy Nicole March 30, 2024 at 7:08 PM Within, we have a way of knowing when something is right or wrong. Our conscience sends signals to our brain that we should repent. I find the Cosmic event, fascinating. Our Creator created our solar system and how it operates. My best to you, Joseph. :) Hugs, Brandy

Silent One March 28, 2024 at 11:17 AM This is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between the physical and the metaphysical. It invites readers to ponder their place in the cosmos and contemplate the eternal questions of existence, leaving them with a sense of wonder and introspection long after the poem has ended

Daniel Henry Rodgers March 28, 2024 at 10:51 AM Hello Joe, I am marveling at the celestial dance of heavenly bodies, pondering if it's more than mere science. I love that it reflects on ancient tales, invoking the biblical city of Nineveh and the prophet Jonah's journey. As the eclipse casts its shadow over Earth, your words stir contemplation, questioning if it's a cosmic sign urging repentance. It's a poetic exploration of the intersection between science, spirituality, and the mysteries of the universe. Very entertaining. - Blessings, Daniel
