In a cavern, far below the earth
Darkness could easily be found
Violet stones show their worth
Underneath the frozen ground

Shards, the likes of icy gems
Glisten, when they catch the light
But beauty hides the worst of them
They disappear, nowhere in sight

You cannot see the danger, when
You walk across the tundra
The cavern opens up its jaws, then
It carries you, down under

There’s no escape, from the well below
You’ve reached your eternal slumber
And they’ll go back to their violet glow
But your mind, will be torn asunder

A weary traveler followed the light
Down this road he had walked for miles
How can the sun arise in the night?
Still the orb, up ahead, did beguile

Eerie clouds hovered around, in the air
Formed circles, in an ominous mist
He stopped to shade his eyes from the glare
Watched, as the dark and light coexist

Bewildered by what he was seeing
He must try to decide, should he go
Or turn back, he’d be perceived as fleeing
What that would mean, he didn’t know

The light in the sky had entranced him
He must continue on the path ahead
Lest this be perceived as only a whim
So, further down, alone, he did tread

Stopped again, by this big old tree
It was one he’d never seen there before
It glowed in the night, with stars, carefree
Twas then, he couldn’t take anymore

He picked up his pace for a moment
Tried to hurry, to reach the hillside
On the last of this journey, a bestowment
With the moon, he’d now safely abide

She dances, like a butterfly flutters

Caught on a simple breath of a breeze

Graceful as the flowers, she is blooming

Adorning meadows, she moves with ease

Soaring, like a bird in flight, she glides

Her life, a delicate balance, unbounded

Floating on the clouds, she is light as air

While trying to keep herself grounded

Falling from the heavens, like rain

These colors that paint the skies

Auroras, the likes of which you’ve never seen

And, oh, how my heart does sigh

Drizzled colors, of purple and green

And a glint of white, to surprise

Such wonder, I have never seen

And I thank God, for my two eyes

Its brilliance awakens the darkness

As I look up, with high regard

I, the sky watcher, beguiled by the light

Such a beautiful sight for this bard

A pixie could daydream her days away

Never noticing the time pass her by

And even the fairy who lives in the clock

Has to come out, occasionally, and try

To wake her, from her dreamy state

This is no easy task, for one so small

So, she decided to sit there, daydreaming, too

Into the night, tis when you dream, after all
