Sun woman - Moon Man
Weaving together my passions for writing and Astronomy, I woke in the early hour last week and penned this eclipse poem, I hope you enjoy it :-)
Sun Woman – Moon Man
Moon slips each night towards suns fiery claw.
Each day it disappears a little more.
Forecast since ancient times.
By those who knew the Sun and Moons rhymes.
Not seen in Oz since Ceduna 2002.
Those who seek it out, little they will not do.
In Arnhem NT, Walu Sun Woman in Nhalandi Moon man's embrace.
The only time we are safe to look upon her blinding face.
To Cairns FNQ most eclipse chasers shall go.
For many this wont be their first show.
From mountain top high to sandy shore low.
The 50,000 plus people coming will surely grow.
Druids, dancers, music lovers and more at festivals shall meet.
Astronomers a plenty, Celestial Mechanics for them a mighty feat.
All come as one, a Sol and Luna show that cant be beat.
With people of FNQ, enthralled visitors share ring side seat.
