What the solar eclipse did to my mood: a poem

I was in a bad mood.

Sad, frustrated, angry.

I want what I want.

To feel,

to hold,

to hear you say.

The way the sun held the moon

in its arms,

is where I want to be with you.

In the sky, 

away from the noise of the 

Earth. 

To experience

the celestial silence

of our 5 minute embrace.

7 years,

twice in a lifetime.

I'm sure we will find

the right time to 

align. 

Its not a conspiracy,

but seeing what 

God made for us

to marvel at.

Instant mood-booster.
