Stained Eclipse
Sip from a chipped teacup,
the glass is still half full.
A grin frowns upside down
framed by two twinkling eyes.
Her brilliance lights this town.
Sip from a chipped teacup,
just turn the rim around.
Press on and work it out,
beauty and bold en force.
Pure gold in a blackout.
Sip from a chipped teacup,
no need for something new.
When it’s bountiful? Share.
Give a bit of your gift,
it is no worse for wear.
Sip from a chipped teacup,
taste once in a lifetime.
Lingering on stained lips,
settling to a fine scar.
Real and a wish eclipse.
