Clouds of Ash
Ash is displayed in massive cloudy form
Looking like what’s coming is a large storm
Black clouds of ash bursts upwards to the sky
Clouds all shine from the sun, casting red dye
Crash, the volcano erupts to begin
Sending ash into the heavens again
Cloudiness form with black on the bottom
Red exploding on the top of the gloom
Swirling around, the thick clouds move downwind
It’s blocking sight, not knowing what it sends
Coming along explosions erupting
Destroying the sky and what’s enchanting
One moment to the next, fear is sky high
As ash billows expulsing a grand sigh
