She releases heat

Steam swells up from Her center

The mountain rumbles

“Steam”

Published by: writersdream9

I have been writing all my life but for the most part, it has been a secret. My parents did not believe writing was a good way to earn money so I hid my poems. Then one day, I wanted to comment on an essay that a friend had written and found myself with a blog. That quiet whisper inside said, "You can write your poetry and no one will ever know.". I knew nothing of followers and the like at that time. So, here I am trying to learn my craft and enjoying every moment of it. My personal details are, I'm 57, married for 39 years, have one grown son who is God's gift to us and last but not least at all, I'm a Baha'i which basically means that I love all humanity.

  1. ah so that’s why the volcano steamed up! I missed have pissed it off last time I traipsed around its caldera! Wish I knew what I did to upset it. This poem builds a great image. I feel like I back there hot-footing it away from the volcano.

  5. the incredible fury released by these volcanoes…and then the super ones..mt. st. Helens, Pinatubo, Krakatoa…these remind us who is really in control…and it is not us.
