Staring into the heavens looking at your full face
I can see the look of surprise as I gaze into your eyes
Stars pale by comparison to your brightness in space
Appearing so small and dim as you illuminate the skies

I am struck with thoughts of wonder awe and amazement
Scatterings of much smaller objects in the heavens twinkle
Showering the sky like glitter I stare in bewilderment
A celestial treat starts to unfold as my brow starts to wrinkle

The earth passing between the sun and the moon blocking
The light from the brightest object in our solar system
Casting a shadow upon the face of surprise I am watching
Light dimming in space bringing the stars out like a gem

Quizzing why this spectacle of nature brings excitement
Yes this is one of nature's truly magnificent feats
Really though it is only the planets arranging in alignment
Watching your face disappear as a shadow defeats

Your face turning crimson showing your humiliation
Feeling for you I know the reason I can see it plain
Covering more and more you are losing domination
Stars now are taking over as you struggle to maintain

Watching the battle unfold knowing you will succumb
Constellations' appearing more visible faces glistening
Growing darker by the minute defeat evident in the scrum
Sparkling diamonds begin a victory dance of flickering

Seeing the humiliation in your dark eyes your mouth still agape
I know embarrassment will not last much longer than a moment
In a few short hours your brilliance again will light the landscape
The reflection of the sun upon your face is once again dominant
