Tommy Beard Poet Rhyme

Eclipse Day

Today is the day of total eclipse.
The moon will cover the sun.
Grab your glasses, drink and chair,
Go outside and have some fun.

The sun will be shining hot.
Don’t forget the sunscreen,
Because if not you will burn.
That’s a sight no one wants seen.

It happens about my nap time,
So I’ll probably be asleep.
But if somebody wakes me up
I’ll go out and take a peek.

Don’t forget to wear those glasses.
You don’t want to burn your eye.
The highways will be busy,
So, I pray no one will die.

Everyone be safe out there,
While looking at the sun.
Make the most of this day.
Hope everyone has a lot of fun.

Anita Harris August 21, 2017 at 10:54 PM I hope you woke up for a peek at the eclipse. Only a partial one here, and we had lots of clouds, but I got a look at it. Saw some great crescent shadows through the trees too.

Silent One August 21, 2017 at 7:36 AM You wrote this really well Tommy, should be an experience for all those who will get a chance to view it..

Jan Allison August 21, 2017 at 7:17 AM What a lovely fun descriptive poem Tommy:-) I hope the sun is shining for those who have traveled to see this event - here on our little Island we are only going to get a partial eclipse and as it is a grey dull wet day its highly unlikely we will see the sun at all lol:-) hugs jan xx
