Mountain Rage

King of all Kings boost the majestic volcano more powerful then a moon eclipse with peaks of ragged lips lies the crater of a bottomless pit Bubbling and brewing from underneath it flows so quiet and spooky the magma crawling and slithering like a rich sweltering ruby With a rumble and a roar it erupts with an explosion from it's throat passionate for it's goal angry and raging it will not be provoked Red crimson fire with a twist of desire it shoots to the sky like a firework display ambition in it's eyes leaving all things in ruins while seeking it's prey Intoxicating to the eyes so provocative it flies raining drops of sparks like a lover who has been betrayed and left in the dark Emitting gray ash to the heavens it soars causing the clouds to split and part spreading darkness like the devil himself on a slow moving ark Lava as hot as a flame flows and slides like two lovers in a slow dance caressing and swallowing everything in it's path The volcano is Royalty it wears it's crown with a fiery power blazing and fierce as it sits and pounders knowing it is the worlds greatest watchtower with a thirst.

Thank you Richard. One day maybe I can go to Hawaii and really get up close to one. They have such awesome power.

Excellent imagery, Tammy! This is nature showing off its incredible power. I was close to Mt Etna when it erupted in 1971; lots of damage occurred. I enjoyed watching the film "The Devil at 4 o'clock", too....that's going back many years! All the best. // paul
