eclipse

off to see James in the morning
when on a walk toward the tram
Mirella passes and says an eclipse will be
in five minutes by her watch

i suggest there will not be much change
as she went eyes skyward upon her way
when two minutes later from
the opposite direction came her husband

and i told Roberto good
day there will be an eclipse
in a moment but do not
expect much change

i will mention the eclipse then
to James when
i see him
and ask then if he noticed
