Sleeping Volcano

Alone Into the sunset I find my place Of soothing solitude There on the shore Of Crater Lake The peace is a veneer Serene and crystal clear I swear I feel the tremors Of a sleeping giant Who rules the underworld Not wanting to wake him I pay my respects With utmost reverence In silence AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on December 30, 2018 for contest SLEEPING VOLCANO sponsored by EVE ROPER - RANKED 3RD

They truly are "sleeping giants". Welled penned, it should do well. I love the description of "The peace is a veneer". Beautifully done.
