Sky Waltz

There were no Northern Lights out dancing in the night sky, but as I walked past a window in the darkened house in the wee hours, I spotted another interesting dance going on in the heavens. Despite the clouds, a sliver of moon was peeking out, providing just enough light to penetrate some thin clouds nearby. A light wind obviousy caressed them as the pushed the clouds apart, then back together in ever changing patterns, giving the appearance of a waltz of the lights in the sky. As suddenly as it appeared, it was gone, however, leaving me to wonder if it had even happened. Alaska is like that, teasing you with its wonders, tantilizing you to keep watching to see what She will toss at you next.
