Where were you during the lunar eclipse of 1982? I know where I was….on the front lawn of my cherished friend Sarah Beth. Today’s poem is inspired by that experience and is dedicated to her.
Want to read it? If so, scroll down in the alphabetical list in Day 6 to read “Lunar Eclipse, July 5-6, 1982.”

Thank you very much. I do feel that this one is one of the weakest. It was more of a homage to the real “Amanda” — my friend Sarah Beth. Later, I think it would be worth a serious revision, though because of the singularity of the experience.
