Enter natures kingdom, that

Calms internal struggles, where

Life's chaos

Is broken down and

Positive energy flows

Soothes the rebirth in order to

Exit exhilarated.

The prompt, " Write an acrostic poem using this word: eclipse.

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. An eclipse, a cosmic phenomenon and a word with multiple meanings, serves as the focal point of this challenge. We invite you to craft an acrostic poem using the word "eclipse." An acrostic poem is a form of poetry where the initial letters of each line spell out a word or message when read vertically.

The eclipse symbolizes not only the celestial event where one celestial body obscures another, but it also metaphorically signifies concealment, transformation, and even revelation."

    Beautiful 🌞

  • Well-wrought and lovely! Nature is a great neutralizer, its unconscious aim balance. So too have I found balance in simply being among it and accepting it as it is.
