Notes About The Poem

Empyreal


Earth orbits 'round the Sun;
  Elliptical, her path.
Equinox, twice yearly,
  Evolves September, March.
Ecliptic plane of Sun
  Eclipses it with Moon...
Enchanting earthly view.

Sandra, I admit I had to look "empyreal" up. Your title was unique and your Pleiades was smooth flowing and descriptive. Congrats on your 3rd place win! Blessings!

I didn't know the meaning of this word, Sandra. You described it's meaning so poetically! Congrats on your win :)
