#eclipse

Time, as I felt it, stopped
  As the Sun gave up its power and waned
But for an interval. I was lost –
  Called away from the mundane.

Given like a vision from God –
  I was shown one of absence
Contrary to a comfortable thought
  But at the mercy of physics.

I am One with the Stars and Earth
  And all Things of eternity;
That doubt of universal birth
  Was overshadowed by gray reverie.
