A Gift from Afar

A Special Day of Escape and Wonder

Escape with me, today is a special day.

Count the steps we take, in case you want to return someday.

Labyrinth that we have built, with windows open to jump and reach the clouds.

Innocence of yesterday, so far away, yet so full of life. A vital state in our inner minds.

Passengers in time, that opens in both directions, on a runaway train.

Sun visible once more, when the moon has completed its path. A gift from afar.

Eclipses are rare, so come with me. Today is a special day, a once-in-a-lifetime event I wish to contemplate with you.
