Fire and Ice
Fire and Ice
The caldera collects and cradles a
Beautiful, deep, impenetrable blue lake,
A beautiful mirror of fire and ice
Harmonizing, a wannabe visage.
Snow uses caldera’s crater for its frame,
Covering it and breathing icy air
To ruffle the tops of old pine trees,
Shaking their patience with a whizz.
Snow slithers, frosts, and shrouds
The dormant island in white blankets
To show the caldera and sleeping fire
The thrill that crowns its Ego
Resounding about the unfazed lake.
The dormant island enjoys its nap
Exhaling gases to shoo the snow away
To play with the lake.
