Solar Eclipse

by Gypsy Blue Rose

the sun gave the moon  —

a ring of fire

Parts of the world will witness a ring of fire solar eclipse on Wednesday, in which the moon passes between the sun and Earth but does not completely obscure the sun, leaving the sun's visible outer edge, also called the ring of fire.

The only countries within the path of the ring of fire are Argentina and Chile (including Easter Island), though several other places will witness a partial eclipse, like parts of Hawaii.

The most common literary adaptation in English of haiku looks something like this: one to four lines, no strict syllable count but brief, and often with a long/short or short/long asymmetry. These poems too utilize a caesura. Images need not be taken from nature, though they may be and often are. Seasonality is optional, though often featured.
