Northern Lights

northern lights
like twilight dancers
tendrils twisting
filmy fingers whispering
across the face of the moon

shadow dancers
ribbons fluttering
stars like sequins
seen through the misty veil of dreams

pale harem dancers
beckoning
tantalizing
pulsing gently
with the heartbeat of the night

candles flickering
flame that shimmers
through the soft black velvet night

northern lights
like angel dancers
feathers floating
crystal colours shine translucent
on the mirrored surface of the pond

woodland faeries
scatter blossoms in the moon path
under the spell
of northern lights
