Joseph May Poet Free verse

Spewing Fire

 It awakens by blowing its top
  Spewing a fiery mix,
 Volcanic ash rising higher and higher
 and will cover the land when it falls
 People flee from its wrath
 As the lava flows to sea;
 If they awaken the volcano within
 Will you erupt violently too

Ink Empress March 4, 2024 at 7:05 AM What a powerful write this is dear joseph, i love the flow of this and your word choices here really goes with the concept of the poem. Brilliant. And anger and rage, youve described very well, should definitely flee from such wrath. Pleasure reading this

Brandy Nicole March 3, 2024 at 1:34 PM That's not a safe place to be, in the presence of someone who's angry. It's best to flee so they can cool off. My best to you, Joseph. Hugs, Brandy

Sotto Poet March 3, 2024 at 1:14 PM This is an exquisite and uplifting piece of literature, much akin to the atmosphere of a beautiful spring day Joseph. The analogy you have drawn between the emotions conveyed and the experience of rage is truly commendable.

Silent One March 3, 2024 at 8:25 AM Great analogy, many are like this with their rage.. Nicely done Joseph..

Heidi Sands March 3, 2024 at 7:59 AM Well done Joseph. Descriptive and thought provoking. Good comparison . ..Questioning whether someone will erupt from within. Hopefully not. Powerful :)
