POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
You may be asking...like me, Gio Masserati,
'What is the difference between a Solar and Lunar Eclipse? '
Answer: In a lunar eclipse, the total phase can last for a maximum of 1 hour and 40 minutes. The maximum time of a solar eclipse is 7 minutes 40 seconds. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun and a lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon.

Excellent re-visiting of an event that took over USA media for a day or two. Pertinent topic and fun with a sense of the visual spectacle of a painting. Important and Iconic poem……we all involved ourselves and then, it was suddenly over but Gio brings it back.

Not only the moon, sun and stars too But astronomer of love and peace For Country and all people, like me and you, A wonderful poem, full of descriptive, Feelings, togetherness and love. It leaves you thinking, That getting along Should not only be something For the astral bodies, That share skies above. This poet's heart is universally reaching and so is this poem.

Thank you so much Sandra! Yes, togetherness and acceptance. A free for all in and out of body experience. To be united globally is a universal mission that speaks the same language in a peacable translation. May we love to the moon, suns stars on eclipse hearts and back!
