The moon and the sun are providing
This minute a sky that’s exciting.
…I’d like to say “howdy”,
…But here it’s too cloudy.
So I’m at my desk these lines writing.
I wish, since I can’t see the wonder,
Because the thick clouds will not sunder,
…That it would just rain –
…Pitter patter my pane.
I’d like to see lightning; hear thunder.
I’ll guess I’ll just wait till the next one.
In two ought three three, there’ll be more fun.
…Egads! I’ll be old!
……Oh.
…I shouldn’t have told.
……Sigh.
Eclipsed super moon brought admission.

I did get to see the eclipse. After I had
written the second stanza, I checked the
sky again and the clouds had parted and
there was the red moon in the heavens.
