The Lights were singing


It was the first time for me to see this spectacle that people often raved about. I was new to this space

We came in two car loads, had blankets and sat by the beach, waiting.

I was awakened by a beautiful singing then everyone were saying, “there it is, look, the lights.” It was dancing, various colors and I heard it singing.

The others looked at me and wondered what I was talking about. They did not hear the singing, the music of that dance. I stopped saying that I heard the music, the singing that accompanied the dancing.

But I still remember the sound. It was like the tinkling laughter of children calling out to their mothers.
