Aurora, Queen of the skies, cast her net upon the dark She sang her haunting invitation to the swimming stars Come dance with me, delicate children Writhe in the strands of my beauty Silken threads of color swayed in delicate flirtation Bright sparks of light wrapped in tendrils of touch Star flowers waltzed with innocent abandon Captive to the Northern Light night Come dance with me, delicate children Writhe in the strands of my beauty They danced. aziza |

That was truly wonderful watching the stars dance. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

With a title like that, I was sure to be drawn it! ~ Not to mention that I love every poem of yours that I have ever read!  I too, have written poems on the Northern Lights. I grew up in northern Ontario, Canada and the aurora literally danced as you have so poetically penned!  Love & Northern Lights, EA |

I was but nine or ten when first I saw such wonders in the sky. I did not take the time to ask what or why. My thoughts were that the sky was falling. Little feet danced a fast cha cha, as all I knew was Home was calling. With fear and pounding heart, feet keeping time to that beat, I made it in the door and slammed it closed behind me. Home, safe from all that came my way. Thanks Midnightsun and Azzia, for the memories of that scary day.. martyjo |

Never seen the northern lights before but I have now. You described a scene so beautiful, so serene . This has also got to be one of my favorite poems ever alongside Balladeers tribute. Adding to my library |

I love your poem. I live in Western New York, I saw the Northern Lights when I was 15. I also lived in Northern Pa for 6 years and saw the Northern Lights once when I lived there. I wished I lived in an area where they happened more often. |
