Best Volcano Poems

Spring sneaks through our path in the wake of
hints still left from winter. Snow white pillows have been shoved
and scattered. Timeless treasures of floral engagement blooms,
earthy perfume plants still entering into our world.

Twill nightfall's and an ocean of abstract wildlife
settle for the night or feed...

D~ormant this volcano was; a rock face,

R~esistance fails; love like lava's trace
E~ruptions of emotion, rare as gold....

Rivers of passion doth hotly swell,
           Surpassing the rampant flames of hell.

While on the surface, calm, serene,

When you sang, dreams croaked, then you ceased to be a volcano,
It was simpler to become a rock, not letting yourself be unraveled by the waves of myopia.
After seasons died in your arms, resigned to your cold might,
You questioned if perhaps all flowers tear their...

MOLTEN LAVA MILES BELOW,
MOUNTING PRESSURE READY TO BLOW. 

THE EARTH WILL SHAKE AND BEGIN TO RUMBLE.

MOLTEN LAVA WILL START TO FLY.

THE RELAESE OF PRESSURE WILL BUILD A TOWER....

  "All the people are looking at you each day and taking pictures, videos of you." the clouds puffed.

The volcano sets the fire calmly
forsaken in the loneliness of time.
Seething, the hot flames lie quiet
swirling until the day it ruptures 
and explodes, the fire spreading

but of the divine unleashed carrying...

A-re not becoming black; 
T-wentieth January beacon 
R-ises, remaining on track.

E-vening shadows disappear, so does the heartache. 

B-ad weather has vanished, 
O-utside the sky is clear; 
N-o more mist and haze,...

A view through aircraft window down below...
A sublime scene of beauty cast in eyes
Of a crater lake, crowned by pristine snow.
The island in its center brought such cheer,
A picture postcard flocked with evergreens,
With a sense of serenity so...
