First Encounter With Aurora

Oh, Aurora,
how many people
keep chasing you?
It is a riddle
when your show is due.

Aurora, kaboom!
A green light!
Is it really you,
this fiery kite
in the deep blue?

Shy Aurora,
behind a thin veil
made out of mist,
as a first date
I got the gist.

Aurora, alas,
I must say goodbye
as day makes way
and away you die.
We’ll meet again

somewhere,
sometime.
