Eclipse

Posted on April 9, 2024April 9, 2024 by Penny Wilson Writes

There was a time when your light shone bright and brilliant. You were the warmth of my days. Then, darkness overcame you, swallowing your soul. I could still see flashes of you, moments of you, when your brilliance would shine like jewels. I feared that the darkness had an eternal hold on you. Then, at last, the darkness released its hold on you. I was once again bathed in your stunning light. I am eternally blessed to live under your luminous beauty.

*I was describing my experience of seeing the eclipse yesterday to my friend over at Minnesota Prairie Roots and she challenged me to write about it. Thank you, Audrey. ❤ Above is the result of that challenge. I hope you enjoyed my efforts.
