eclipse
the moon is coming back now
the shadow hovering and shifting
the clouds a passing shroud
I didn't know if I would be patient enough
but now the sliver of light is increasing
filling in / filling out the circle
I am surprised by how much relief I feel
there had been a doubt

I like the conciseness of this and the image of seeing the moon slowly emerge from the cloudy sky, watched that happening many times when I have been ufo watching.
That atavistic shiver. *
enjoyed *
quietly disturbing like the event described.*
thanks guys... i'm definitely exploring the subtler realms...
And it is that doubt that has made this so enjoyable to read. *
Love the doubt. The magic begins with doubt.
*You have done something so HUMAN here. Love it.
thank you so much!!
"the clouds a passing shroud"
