'Twas the night before eclipse 2017, when all thro' Baltimore
Not a vehicle was stirring not even a car door;
The tracker was watched with care,
In hopes that Amazon soon would be there;
The buyer sat nestled and snug in his chair,
As visions of the eclipse appeared in the air
And Mama watching TV,
While SummerSlam I stream -
When out on the street there was a small clatter,
I sprang from my chair to see what was the matter,
Away to the window I tripped to the floor,
Lifted my body, and threw open the door.
The sun over top the garbage below,
gave off a smell that made me feel low;
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
but a miniature Toyota in reverse gear,
With a little young driver, looking like Don Juan,
I knew in a moment it must be Amazon.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And he scan the package; then turn'd at me like I'm some kind of jerk,
And laying his finger aside his smartphone
And giving a nod, down the steps with a groan.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight—
Happy Eclipsing to all, and to all a good night.
The glasses had arrived! I was very excited as I opened the envelope and tested by looking inside a light bulb! I think that's as close to meeting Santa Claus I'm going to get! The glasses were great and they come with a nice pamphlet and sticker. See the glasses in action below:
