Cave

Deep down hidden!
Silence!! 
As loneliness formed beauty,
Centuries of creativity,
Ebbing and flowing,
Sometimes so soft and gentle,
Others violently thrashing waters,
Against the rocks of time,
As the sea etches away in secret,
Forming and designing,
Diamond cuttings! 
Art forming patterns,
Nature hid her extravagance,
Unseen by human eyes,
For thousands of years 
Until her unveiling day,
When daylight enters,
Sun revealing colors,
Sculptured with magnificent shapes,
That make people bow their heads in honor,
As standing on holy ground.
When entering this cave!

That's exactly how it works Wendy. Add a little wind from a hole somewhere and then you get the magnificent caves. Excellent write!
