Solar eclipse

in poetry •  6 years ago 

The sunlight swallowed by then moon’s shadow,
Aged men and women panicked, children fascinated;
Schools shut for a moment to view a free attraction,
The sun’s power cremated, many a people ran helter- skelter
Thinking the end of the world had just reached;
For a while atheists believed in the existence of a creator.

Did the sun eat itself like a hen that feeds on its eggs?
Or had it gone under baptism-
Submerged into the waters of the gargantuan sky;
Or was it its big blink,
That could be hypothesised to view it as a giant creature-

Probably a big dodo in the space?
The universal wonder acclaimed and real,
The might sight may generations missed.
