An Amazing Experience

Everywhere you look, people are standing in the park gazing at the sky awaiting the miracle.

Cops stop traffic and join the throng, standing outside their cruisers staring upward.

Luna and Sol jostle for supremacy as people jostle for views through the many telescopes scattered about the park.

Inside, people stare at their TV screens, watching Luna eat Sol by phosphorous proxy.

Parties flourish as the eclipse reaches totality and the oh'ing and ah'ing begins.

Soon Luna begins to slip aside to allow Sol to resume his reign over the daytime.

Everyone cheers, and people young and old, celebrate Sol's rebirth.
