James Fraser Poet Verse

Somewhere Near Taal

Taal, your angry, many times
Longing to stand your Lake shores
Take me in, absorb me
Luzons love, keep me
Anger no more

Andrea Dietrich January 10, 2015 at 5:40 PM I bet it is so lovely, James. James Fraser January 11, 2015 at 2:54 PM Hiya Andrea, Taal is a Volcano on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. It's quite an angry volcano with 33 historical eruptions, hence the anger element. When it comes to volcanoes, the usual suspects are always mentioned, Etna, Vesuvius and Popocatépetl. No one thinks of Taal, it's quite unusual, James :) :)
