Eclipsed

Monday, December 20, 2010

*Points at title.* No, I'm not talking about a horrible vampire movie.

*Shudder.* Tonight there's supposed to be a lunar eclipse. I've always found

solar and lunar eclipses to be something magical...(And yes, I'm aware of the

difference between solar and lunar eclipses, don't be confused by the story.)

Quote Of The Day:

"Nations, like stars, are entitled to eclipse. All is well,

provided the light returns and the eclipse does not become

endless night. Dawn and resurrection are synonyms. The

reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the

soul." ~ Victor Hugo

50 Word Story:

Moonblock

A brilliant sun hanging in the sky like a diamond. It emanates heat, power,

and life and isn't afraid. It sparks and swirls with endless energy. The moon, a

small, cratered grey that slowly begins to take over the sun, gradually blocking

it out, then gradually slipping away again.
