The Earth's Shadow
an eclipse of the moon in its flight
As the shadow of Earth draws near
To darken its glowing light
Earth, moon, and sun's alignment in sight
Casting their shadows here and there
An eclipse of the moon in its flight
As shadows move across the night
A dimming of Luna will appear
To darken its glowing light
Stars will still twinkle in delight
As shadows creep upon luna's sphere
An eclipse of the moon in its flight
A total Lunar eclipse will excite
As darkness descends on those who peer
To darken its glowing light
Eclipses are a celestial rite
Which we observe from here
An eclipse of the moon in flight
To darken its glowing light
