In the Shadows!

It didn't go dark or anything
but there was something 
about the brightness of the light 
that made you feel like you where in a shadow

Everyone was gathering in the junior playground
taking turns 
to look at the Sun 
through some special viewers we had been loaned

No one was really prepared for the sight

When I first looked through the viewer 
I felt surprised and delighted at the same time
The image was so clear 
and the Moon seemed 3D.

As I looked around 
at the other people 
taking their first look at the eclipse 
I saw the same delight and surprised expressions on their face's

What surprised me most 
was the crescent shaped forms
between the shadows 
under the trees

Take a look for yourself
