M. L. Kiser Poet Free verse

Auroras Paint Party

Upon the stage, curtains wave and part;
halos arise from black velvet canvas,
an aurora-lime dance.

Arced streamers among the nimbus
lends it’s flavors of cherry and orange,
personality to a taste of the ethers.

A display of lavender-pink tones gift
electric kisses and join the promenade.

A luminous do-see-do sparks crescendo,
a gods warm breath upon the northern winds
and the waters echo the notes
sung by the goddess of the dawn.

She dines and dances her masterpiece
upon heaven’s canvas.

Eric Cohen January 8, 2020 at 5:51 PM Very nice! I'm a sucker for the aurora. You did it justice and then some. "lime-dance" and waving curtains very descriptive. M. L. Kiser January 15, 2020 at 3:20 AM Thanks so much.

Vijay Pandit January 8, 2020 at 9:29 AM Exquisite imagery, in superb vocabulary--an aurora-lime dance...She dines and dances her masterpiece upon heaven’s canvas. A painting masterfully painted. M. L. Kiser January 15, 2020 at 3:20 AM Wow, thanks so much Vijay; I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Lin Lane January 8, 2020 at 8:16 AM "Upon heaven's canvas"... a wonderful line. As a painter, your verses appeal to me and make me feel like pulling out a black canvas, but the hand of no human can recreate that sort of beauty. A grand write, M.L. M. L. Kiser January 15, 2020 at 3:21 AM I'm glad it made you feel like painting; we all have our interpretations...as long as it's original...go for it and thanks.
