Ambushing the Eclipse

This morning
My alarm and I conspire
To ambush the Eclipse

She glimpses our shadowstalking and leaps
Through an open window into the clouds

Joining the sunrise
Waving urgently
Crying:

"Goodbye! Goodbye!"

  3. Sorry. Your poem is full of disappointment at missing this crimson eclipse. I caught pieces of the moon...
