Creative Practice Day 46

A softness in the sky came to town Tuesday As gentle as moss on the forest floor
  I'd have missed it if others like me hadn't been looking up
  People left their homes in droves and travelled north just to see
  Aurora
  waves of silk deep reds bright greens spreading out from the horizon like wings.
  An enchanting display some missed it, many didn't For so many that night a once in a life experience
  The sun growled and whipped her winds tearing at our sky far flung fingers scraping off the layers of our home's defense
  perhaps one day such signs shall herald the end of all. that day, it was a sign of love that we are still protected from the sun's wrath
