Ok so lets see. The image is the prompt . I found this image of the Northern Lights on Google images and thought it was amazing but its been sitting in my picture folder gathering dust lol

I want to see where you guys can go with this, any form is fine. Dark, happy, spiritual, even funny. Anything! lol

I want 10-15 lines only , with lots of imagery

Will close after 8 poets enter and then you have 1 hour to complete your poems
