The dark times in our lives can overwhelm, and leave us grasping for solutions. And these can be a long time coming.

The darkness of an eclipse also seems to blanket permanently. But it isn’t, and lifts after a moment. May this haiku lift in dark times.

____________________________________________________

Eclipse, dim but fierce

Dark covers the light of day-

Lasts only a moment.
