    The Eclipse

    The dim sky takes over my room
    Giving it a feeling of gloom 
    A thunderstorm must be on the way
    And to keep the sunny skies far away

    But the sun looks like it’s still alive
    The usual bright blue sky barely thrives
    The sky in its own way is calling me
    To make me see what it wants me to see

    The odd-looking sun is working hard to set itself free
    But is surrounded by a legion of clouds
    That roared loud and proud
    I forgot the eclipse rules

    Never look up without the tool
    That’ll keep your eyes safe
    and from being baked
    My eyes remain alive
    From the beautiful view that made me smile inside

    I wish I had seen the ring of fire in its full glory
    But at least there’s another eclipse I can add to my life story.
