A POEM BY WENDELL BERRY
To go in the dark with a light is to know the light.
To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight,
and find that the dark, too, blooms and sings,
and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.
The next total solar eclipse falls on August 12, 2026. This eclipse will pass over the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, Greenland, Iceland, Portugal, and northern Spain. It’s definitely not too soon to start planning.
