Volcanoes
Mountain peaks, rivers, and valleys below
Blooming in Spring or covered in Winter’s snow
These sights form the landscape of our lives
Where comfort and appreciation for beauty arrives
But unknown to most or tiny vents in the soul
Until the pressure within gets out of control
A violent eruption catches the unsuspecting landscape by surprise
Hot magna flows and burning ash blocks light from the skies
And when the devastation stops and all is once again still
The landscape has shifted in the mind, emotion, and will
And while there is no doubt the the topography is forever changed
Relationships, personalities, and priorities have been rearranged
Will you still look for beauty after the fall rain blows
Will you find comfort in the scars of volcanoes

yes - one should look out for some sense as eruption of volcanoes can bring out hidden truths..
A great metaphor for human emotion. Followed through from beginning to end this one reads well
A well written piece an explosion of a volcano can bring more beauty or everlasting damage,great meaning to this write.
