Ombretta’s Yearning

Every several years there was a chance to experience the celestial phenomenon.

Chasing a stolen moment of wonder, she wanted this experience.

Letting the rest of her mundane life fall away to witness a once in a lifetime miracle.

In hopes of seeing liquid silver dreams and knowing something larger than herself existed.

Perhaps a burst of emotions would leave her transformed forever.

She was a umbraphile, a true shadow lover at heart.

Exiting this adventure, she contemplated whether her life would have more meaning.
