Aurora Borealis
Her canvas is the pitch black sky on cold, dark winter nights
When Mother Nature, in all her glory, starts to paint the Northern Lights
Charged particles collide with atoms way up in the thermosphere
Resulting in colors of the aurora borealis, seen both far and near
Swirling lights of green and red, dance across the midnight sky
The ballet caused by a geomagnetic storm – majestic to the eye
The Roman goddess of the dawn, Aurora, shares her beautiful name
With this phenomena of Northern Lights, adding to the Arctic fame
