Everything turns into dark for a moment today
Cosmic phenomenon is only minutes away.
Luminosity strikes, then disappears,
Increasing tension enhances our fears.
People are impatient, don't want to miss the chance,
Seeing this special event, two orbs' graceful dance.
Eclipse of the century now finally makes sense.

Feelings Never Die
It is Valentine's Day again, and it bought back memories that were over fifty years old. It bought me back to 1971, and I woke up and I knew my baby was due today. I was big and pregnant, and I felt like I was about to burst wide open. Imagine my surprise when the doctor told my I had a due date of February 14. I couldn't believe it, and since my baby was due today, I felt I could indulge myself a bit. I had gained a lot of weight, and chocolate was on the no-no list, but I had came to the end of this pregnancy, and I hoped it would be okay, after all I would deliver this baby today. So I walked across the street to the grocery story, and bought myself, a peppermint patty, covered in chocolate, my favorite. Me and my Valentine's baby would enjoy it together.

Increasing tension enhances our fears. Nicely done!!
I like how this one has a positive take on the eclipse that isn't too heavy, but rather a reflection of what it's like to anticipate and watch one! "Seeing this special event, two orbs' graceful dance."- great line Anna:)
Eclipse wow! I haven't tried to write an acrostic poem but this gave me a stimulation. Fitspirational !!!
Oh this is great. And like Dharr, that line "Two orbs' graceful dance" is such a fine way to describe it. Well done, Anna!
