Eclipse

When the sun and the moon tango as one
 And the Earth looks on from afar
 A total eclipse would have begun
 And you'll be able to wish upon a star

What a lovely quatrain you have penned, dear Joseph! Quite a tribute to our wondrous eclipse. I am just as entranced by your words as I was with the viewing today! Hugs. Pandita

I like the tango part, Joseph! Great wording! I wonder if there is an eclipse contest, I will have to check. Unless all these eclipse poems are due to recent eclipse. :) Well done!
