Shining  with allure
in psychedelic brilliance.
ruby ,emerald and
azure coalescence glow
iridescent mysteries

light writhing in dance
swiftly they come and they go
sweeping ebony

shimmering serpents
casting  mysterious dance
flirting with the sky
insinuating color
bold, with every sweeping arch




Aloha with warmest regards, Koko

The Northern Sky light
It’s truly an awesome sight
Nature’s show at night
Aurora Borealis
Colorful shades of light



I viewed it while stationed in Alaska in the Army. Thanks.

where black will never meet white

your use of language here is excellent. . .
"psychedelic brilliance", "azure coalescence", "iridescent mysteries". . . I love those. . . they make it seem real. . . even without the picture. . .

wonderful!!

Wel < 2dalimit..you were very fortunate to experience seeing this phenomena of nature. I have not ever seen it ,but wish i had. I wrote from beautiful pictures of it. thankd for commenting .....smiles

brian madden: wel I wish I could say the same ,but I know it is not posible for me to see these lovely lights. thanks for your kind words

sven: smile atcha, I am a "word woman" LOL
and it is what makes the nature in haiku poetry come alive. It is quite a challenge to perform a haiku would not do this  phenomena justice so it had to be the choka thanks for your wonderful kindness to me and your encouraging comments. The muse is yet in a real struggle to pen. I someimes wonder if I ever will get another poem written ever again and then one comes thru.
take care and write on , my friend

Kit: you must live where you can see this marvel. wow how awesome that must be. Thanks for your encouragement and comment. That is an honor from a lady whom I so admire in her poetry and style.  write on!

Aloha with warmest regards, Koko

KoKo~
My goodness ... what a lovely piece.
The phrasing does the picture justice.
You are just wonderful in your portrayal in this form.
