Eclipse it’s only an eclipse a quirk of timing nothing to disturb or give significance these two the sun and moon would shine together blending perfectly their light one light purpose one purpose as it was intended but this random flaw this singlarity of circumstance keeps them apart separates for just a moment all their timing perfect till the world got in the way |

Till the world got in the way! A good one... If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Ed...As with most of your poetry, this can be read from a deeper level, past just the moon, into the human. Goodnight. |

it seems to be all a question of timing and where you are at a given (or an ungiven) point in time... enjoyed your words... regards sudhir |

Rat I like the aspect of the combination of the two seems as though the world gets in the way of everything [This message has been edited by dreambuilder (05-16-2003 04:59 AM).] |

Great ending. It infuses the poem with extra meanings, and depth. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

but this random flaw this singlarity of circumstance keeps them apart separates for just a moment all their timing perfect till the world got in the way My thoughts wandered onto many paths as I sat outside last night and watched... wondering who else might be watching. *S* But my primary thought as I read this is that your words are as beautiful as the event. *S* |
