I dreamed of the solar eclipse - 
The moon, a glowing sail of ethereal beauty and the sun, a bright seraphic burst of flames roamed the skies and
chased each other relentlessly in the wide & open heavens;
And when they finally met & collided, the entire earth was
humbled and came to a standstill as she watched the most
spectacular splendour, unfold right before her eyes;
The giant red and yellow fiery balls held hands and as if in slow motion,
the moon veiled the sunlight as their bodies interlaced & formed beautiful
patterns that changed and flowed; And just before they embraced in their
entirety they blinked and closed their eyes to the entire earth, casting a
dark veil over her face, as if to shield their 'stolen moments' of intimacy
from the indiscreet eyes of the world;
As the earth waited helplessly for the lights of heaven to flood upon her,
she held her breath to stop herself from drowning in the pit of darkness,
while the moon and the sun slowly and progressively disentangled from
their brief & sweet entice, then rose high above in the majestic sky, with
grace and glow;
As they returned separately to their orbits, they blessed the earth with
their flooding & magnificent light, filled with promises of new 'Suns' for
many centuries to come and that lovers will forever gaze at in awe and
wonderment;
I dreamed of the solar eclipse and I saw the sun & the moon kiss in sweet
and heavenly harmony, like in offering humanity new beginnings of the
most beautiful endeavours; I dreamed of the solar eclipse so splendid &
magical, and forever in my heart...
