Karen Lynn Vidra, The Texas Tornado, click here to update your pages on AuthorsDen.




     The "northern lights" have inspired Barbara, aged 14, to write a poem.
The northern lights, an unusual sight,
Boy, how they ever light up the night!

Waving curtains of light: pink, aqua, yellow, white, red, blue~
They amaze and enthrall us with their multicolored hues.

A rare spectacle indeed, they put on quite a spectacular show,
And we show our disappointment when they slowly fade and then go.

Common in northern lands, they usually don't come this far south,
But whenever we do see them, gasps and cries erupt from our mouths.

Northern lights, lights seen in the land of the polar bear and Eskimo~
Give us southern folk a thrill and a warm and excited glow!

Sure am lookin' forward to seeing the Lights again;
I haven't been this thrilled since I don't KNOW when!

Lights, Lights, come back again some day:
I'll be waiting, so I can dance around and play!

Ah, we too saw the Aurora Borealis here in southwestern Ohio last month! As you said in your blog, they don't usually show up this far south, let alone Texas! Here they washed the entire northeastern sky with a deep carnelian red! I even got a photo of it! Thanks for sharing your poem!
