Heavenly Play!

Total solar eclipse; a heavenly play
Gradual buildup, crescendo and the inevitable decline
Testament to the ephemeral nature of life itself.

For a tiny spec of time
A star succumbs to a piece of inert rock
Darkness envelopes
Anomaly lasts for mere seconds
Order is restored quickly
A parallel to human conscience.

Ancient humans didn’t understand
Treated the event as an omen
Perhaps fury of the Gods
Humans sacrificed life to please and to atone
Present day humans not that different after all
Some things don’t change!
