ECLIPSE

Facing away, towards the deep abyss

An eternal starry night, both dark and pale

Cold and frozen, a world without bliss

Pinpricks of light seep through the vale

Turned away, from the earth

Seeking wisdom from the past

What strange thoughts, shall it give birth?

Will it’s nightmare forever last?

Yet the heavens contain more than one

Fate is set, and time will turn

Soon appears the golden sun

Where ice can freeze, fire shall burn

The celestial sovereigns there in shall meet

Heralding the eclipse, darkness and light

They both step forward and take their seat

Where night once was, it is now bright
