Obscure Bloom, the Eclipse

Obscure Bloom; the Eclipse

Obscuring the moon
A veil of rose and ashes
Fades and overwhelms

Memory of light
Lost imprint of blossom bloom
Imperceptible 

Through black spaces move
Things unearthly and unseen
Stirring the shadows

Earth falls to silence
Darkness comprehending not
What may yet become

Thank you so much for reading and commenting. I watched the eclipse on my own in the dark down the canal in my town. It was a profound experience and something really did move in the bushes. It's a privilege being able to find and share words that can convey some sense of the atmosphere of such things. All the very best to you.
