Eclipsed

They say it was a super moon
   but regretfully 
   I could not see it.
The shadow clouds stole away my view
   and I was deprived 
   of its wonderous display.
I’m not sure I’ll be here in 2033 
   that seems a long way off,
   too, too far from today.
I am not a child any longer
  but time alone will tell
  but for now, holds that secret.
For now I still look and observe
 the beauty of the skies
 in daylight or night time
There is a wonder 
 that can never ever
 be eclipsed by the earth, the moon or  sun.
