Solar Eclipse

Help!
No!
This can’t be true,
The sun is gone,
What will we do?
It’s dark,
It’s gray,
It’s disappeared!
The sun is gone,
It’s what we feared!
It’s gone!
It’s out!
Its shine has stopped,
Electric bulbs,
When they're dropped!
broken light bulb
But then our teacher,
Told our room,
The sun is there,
Behind the moon,
The moon has only
Blocked our view,
Of the sun,
So wait a few,
Solar eclipse!
Sunlight’s blocked,
By the moon,
So don’t be shocked..
The moon will move,
You’ll see the sun
Solar Eclipse,
Will be done!

Solar Eclipse:
A solar eclipse happens when the moon comes between the Earth and the Sun and blocks the Sun's light. An eclipse can be partial (only part of the Sun is blocked) or total (the entire Sun is blocked). Solar eclipses happen between two and five times a year although they cannot be viewed from all places on Earth. It is important not to stare at a solar eclipse with your naked eye- during an eclipse the light from the Sun may appear dim, but even a small amount of direct sunlight can cause damage to your vision.
