Eclipse
by mazHur

A numberless sheet of sterile stars
strewn in the sky are no match
for the Sun and the Moon in love;
Stars twinkle but like a mottled mirage,
dissipate sporadic surges of light,
devoid of heart to eclipse and envious of
the Almighty Sun
which continues to burn in the fire of love,
radiating an aphrodisiac stream of light;
A giver of life, the sun is a power house of fiery love,
bestowing tranches of love with unparalleled generosity upon his beloved Moon, to keep it ever smiling
during the lonesome nights;
the Sun and the Moon are like two eternal lovers
destined to keep circling in the cosmic terrain,
and the Sun, overjoyed with the intermixed ecstasy of love,
gently whispers his compassion to the Moon ,
and the Moon approvingly nods as a token of
endearing consonance of self-surrender,
their hearts anxiously swing with the joy of meeting and imbricating each other,
but the heavens villainously turn their wishes into smoke,
the jealous earth intervening like a vampire wont to suck and enslave,
keeps the cross-fated lovers eternally apart;
lips sighing, hearts crying, the two ephemeral lovers finally succumb to the gloom of eclipse.
All the stars and meteors in the sky
watch the couple with awe and envy.
