In the Shade of Half Eclipse

In the Shade of Half Eclipse

Silence…………………………………………….

Portent breathing

Light diffuse 
Scattering bird song

Silence……………………………………………

Indrawn momentum
She held
 
Prophecy by hands cling 
To premonition

Light fading
Dispersal of half moon shadow
Reaped by tufted grass

So hushed………………………………………..

Encumbered by trepidation
Shade deepening

Held by half eclipse
Nature freed by expectations darkness

Half moon shadow
Half moon light

Unveiled the fairy land
