Enter the chaos of natural phenomena
celestial events that caused fear before the
learned astronomers
informed the
populace and taught people to view them not as dire
signs, but as natural happenings
eternally evolving, emanating, entertaining eclipses

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

Reading around to learn about acrostic poetry. Nicely Done Acrostic.
Good luck in the challenge 👍
In olden days, eclipses were seen as the worst kind of happening. However, with scientific advancements, we now understand them to be normal natural phenomena.
Oooo, I especially loved how your last line was an alliteration. Beautiful Acrostic!
I always think how frightening the first couple of eclipses must have seemed for humans. End of world fright must have been uppermost in their minds. We still feel awed, how must they have felt. Love this.
Beautiful entry! One of my favs so far! Incredible acrostic! 💌
Andrea, this is lovely and evokes our awe about the universe from the beginning of time. Good luck in the acrostic challenge!
Again beautiful.
Nice poem!
