Linda,

Isn't this utterly the truth.
You captured it perfectly.

Thanks, I could see it.

Hugs,

I will miss those northern lights this winter...unless they come down to the Rockies for a visit.

I enjoyed sharing your view.

I'm always drawn to read a Haiku, and this one is very nicely written.
Good job!

Deb  ~

Why thank you! --and what a surprise to see more light added to this aurora!

I love the northern lights! As a teenager I loved to go out at night, all bundled up nice and cosy, and lie down in the snow with my eyes drinking in the spectaclar vista in the heavens above.

~ May your life always reflect the beauty of the auroa borealis

well described, yes, she dances in vibrant colors! (sometimes)

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Thank you! --and yes, not always are they a colorful calypso dance. At times they are a more of like a Swan Lake ballet.

~ May your life be as full of light, beauty and the vital life force of the aurora borealis!
