Trying to Make the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis)

I’ve been working on the Northern Lights (aurora borealis). But, it isn’t working out yet. This is not what I hoped for, not even close considering all the ideas I have tried.

Sailing

Sailing by Christopher Cross was just on. What a great piece of music. One of the few that still makes me stop whatever I’m doing and just listen all the way through.

Sailing

It’s not far down to paradise
At least it’s not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
It’s not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
Sailing
Takes me away
To where I’ve always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I’m sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won’t you believe me
It’s not far back to sanity
At least it’s not for me
And when the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
