Sonnet 4: The Aquamarine Monolith

The vast and subterranean 
depths awake,
An undulating wave begins
to grow,
As tidal currents violently
awake
And stir the bioluminescent
glow.
The hyper- luminescent 
sapphire wall
Ascends against the high
celestial sphere,
A fluid, panoramic, sweeping 
hall
Where atmospheric shadows 
disappear.
Then comes the thunderous,
explosive crash,
A multifaceted, bright
diamond spray,
As liquid glass and ancient 
granite crash,
To wash the solitary coast
away.
The subterranean gargantuan dies,
Reflecting iridescent 
midnight stars.
