Script of the Eclipse [180.28]

Script of the Eclipse

         along the lunar limb

Read cursive scrawled on the edge of the Moon.
Decipher the message. Heed what is known,
and what you will know — soon enough.

Life hangs tough and each bead of hope brightens
the day. Shine on. Shine on. Do not dismay.
The future speaks along the rim

where rays peek through. Leave bad habits behind;
seek the Light that will guide your way.

Kåre Enga [180.28] (12.mars.2023)

Free verse. 10/10/8 10/10/8 10/8 random rhyme throughout.

Prompt: edge of the moon. "EXPRESS IT IN EIGHT" 

Note: The Baily's beads effect or diamond ring effect is a feature of total and annular solar eclipses. As the Moon covers the Sun during a solar eclipse, the rugged topography of the lunar limb allows beads of sunlight to shine through in some places while not in others.
