The gloomy shadow of the moon moves silently,
It rinses across enormous regions of Earth.
As night begins to creep in, the light wanes.
A cosmic leap, a dance of the stars.
The brilliant light is already out of sight,
fading into a stunning shade of darkness.
Animals beneath the surface sensed the shift and recognized
that the landscapes had changed like they were on cue.
Suddenly falling asleep in the middle of the day,
breathtaking scenery, captivating sight.
Dancing silhouettes, enveloped in dusk,
Ethereal, transient, radiant moments.
The sun's blazing crown, cast aside by the moon
without a frown, is breathtaking.
Bright corona, a deep halo,
lighting the sky everywhere.
People assemble and gaze with astonishment.
Taking part in the wonder, a unique moment.
Accepting the incomparable magic,
Taking in the grandeur of nature.
The orbs are perfectly symmetrical,
harmoniously blending light and shade.
An ethereal melody, an old beat,
Sung for everyone to see under the stars.
Ancient myths, once initiated,
depict the lunar guardian shrouding the sun.
Older people spun in veneration
Legends about gods and their victories in war.
Those who see eclipses gaze in wonder,
mesmerized by the cosmic phenomenon.
Abandoned in the instant, they reach and
span into the cosmos as time stretches.
Unending spectacle, a masterfully choreographed
celestial display from a long time ago.
The sun and moon are dancing in space.
Unending marvels, for us to discover.
It travels forward, the shadow moves forward,
A cosmic dance that is fleeting and transitory.
Every sight evokes amazement and astonishment;
the solar eclipse is an eternal dream.
The darkness disappears and light reappears.
In the brilliant array of the sun, a new day begins.
Maybe the eclipse will remain in memory,
Still engraved on hearts, it will waver.
A unique celestial phenomenon that leaves
an enduring impression on the imagination.
Light-filled letters intertwined with darkness
In the pages of history, preserved forever.
