Premium MemberMagical Northern Lights

electrifying
when peering through earth's skylight
angels love the sight

effects arising
from hued sun so far and near
like scent of rose dear

magical with moon
above crisp snow and pine trees
nature's mysteries

skies largely maroon
with pastels of the spectrum
night's ageless stardom

                 God mixing colours
    ~above us the sky flashes~
  a masterpiece made

     unbelievable
          what mother nature painted

Premium MemberAuroras 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 are electric kisses and promenade. 
A luminous do-see-do sparks crescendo, a gods warm breath.

The northern winds and the

Premium MemberShirley Sees Northern Lights

Shirley had always dreamed of seeing the Aurora Borealis.
One night she was awakened by a giant polar bear named Alice.
I am taking you to Norway, to see the northern lights, she said.
Shirley was taken swiftly across the ice in some large sled.

The lights were better than she could have imagined with her mind.
Thank you Alice,

Northern Lights

where unfolding
on the night's 
tapestry,
no stars
or golden 
moment
appear,
even
the winds
sat
in silence,
waiting,
watching
the night
give birth
to
artistic
movements,

gather,
poised
and producing
colorful
streaming
radiance,
iridescent
colors weaving,
blazing
into existence,
each
flowing freely
and aggressively
within each
patient hour,
no remorse given,
none expected,
all conveying
such wonder
to the delight
of all
surveying 
eyes.

Premium MemberBeauty of Aurora Borealis

A one-dimensional photo cannot capture the beauty of Aurora Borealis
Mere ordinary everyday words could never explain these feelings.
I stare into God’s Iceland oasis sf blues, greens and purples
My heart and soul want to draw or write of it,
My muse knows better, she is too intimidated to get started
We both understand that there is only one

Premium MemberArura Borealis

When the solar winds stir magic
Unleashed beauty a riot of colour
It undulates and swells, ecstatic
In darkness I stand and wonder

Colours sublime capture my mind
Turmoil of life far, far away
Life on hold not counting time
Arura Borealis forever and a day

Premium MemberArctic Lights

bringing mysticism into vogue
arctic lights are more flamboyant than rainbows
there is a stillness that inspires reverence

heaven surely can get no closer to earth
I want to run with the sky to the source
a wolf howls in the distance 

toasty warm I stare at the horizon
magic oozes into my spirit, reviving my soul
as I watch the sky

Premium MemberNorthern Lights

They came dancing without rules,
fervent visitants, fanning flamingo dresses of furious prisms, 
figments so lustrous, figurantes in gleeful percussive permutations,
Their luminous spectral syncopation dazzling against a stark dark vista,
against the opaque nocturnal skyline, against all the bruises of one’s psyche.
They came dancing.

They were currents of tormented effulgence, wave upon wave,
a rocky glistening sea, a silent

Premium MemberHoneymooning In Iceland

In Iceland we settled down in a comfortable downy bed.
My man’s arm was a comfy spot for me to rest my head.
It’s a light show that you will see only once in your life.
I loved hearing his voice, knowing he now called me wife.

This honeymoon was a dream I did not think possible at all.
Yet,
