Poem

There was a time so carefree we were.
Time we had more than enough!
A blue sky meant a sunny day.
Our eyes with merry would dance 
Thinking of another day in a cave;
A fascinating world compared 
To the insipid one we lived.

There was a time so carefree we were.
Time we had more than enough!
A team of young spirited we were
Roam and explore deeper the
Womb of Mother Nature, we dare.
Our first project we mounted
Which “Save the caves” we called.

There was a time so carefree we were.
Time we had more than enough!
First time my knees were jelly,
On sight of a dark gaping mouth
Waiting in the bush to engulf life.
Turned back I did to run as fast.
But mates pulled me back, by force.

There was a time so carefree we were.
Time we had more than enough!
Romance in the air, stories got weaved;
Studying life of cave swiftlet was it,
Identifying  fauna and flora was it, 
Paint flowed, guitars vibrated, cameras clicked
Whilst meeting were some hearts in secret.

There was a time so carefree we were.
Time we had more than enough!
The dark deep tunnel getting darker
And the mud stickier; all excited we were.
Droplets, ice cold, poked our faces
From fissures in rocky roof, craftwork 
Of nature’s carvers; fascinated we gazed.

There was a time so carefree we were.
Time we had more than enough!
 The caves’ beauty we set to restore;
Scraps in loads we met, grotesque
Craftwork of human; underground water
We met, smelling of chemical pungent.
Awaken did we, the sleeping authorities.   

One day our mission was accomplished
And the caves found back their beauty.
