Solar Lunar Eclipses
Solar Lunar Eclipses
Eclipse obscure the sun as moonrise block the sunrise,
Causing light to avoid the earthly paradise;
Lunar and Solar total eclipse came out to play,
In daytime over ocean waters rising tide.
Passing between Earth and Moon, it reflects light from the sun;
Silently casting shadows in space away, it has begun
Everywhere, the Solar Eclipse invite shadow friends to sunspot,
Singing, come Umbra and Penumbra, be guest of honor, join the fun.
Passing certain times, a shadow friend fail, to show up,
only then, does Annular eclipse bring its light to make up;
encouraging bright solar ring, to tango in dark skies,
and waltz around dark disk of a total eclipse wrap-up.
Ready, see the moon crossing earth orbital plane’s event,
yearly, at the new or full moon’s bright glow
when moon, sun, and earth are in alignment.
Let’s watch, the big celestial exhibit in the heavenly realm
when sun, moon, and earth have their day or night
displaying a radiance view for gazers, overwhelmed.
