i know this sounds painfully stupid— but my native language isn’t english. when i looked up how they happen, i got a bunch of big words thrown at me and didn’t understand a single thing.

In space, the Sun’s mood is quite solar,
It blasts out a wind that’s a roller.

With a magnetic clash,
And dance in the sky by the polar.
