Lunar Eclipse

The umbra takes umbrage

The Moon embraces Earth’s shadow
Much like she embraces her own
Out of sight Sun light brightly blocked
Streetlight etches shadows on stone
Orion’s belt points to the Moon
Pleiades floats high to the right
Great pine trees loom under the Moon
Black shadows darker than the night
Shadows and darkness are colors
Shadings of gray, black, and white
Grayscale exhibits a beauty
That accents the colors of light.
