Nature’s most beautiful creatures
Are never truly a threat to man
The danger is in the mortal beast
Who destroys whatever he can

In a cavern, far below the earth
Darkness could easily be found
Violet stones show their worth
Underneath the frozen ground
Shards, the likes of icy gems
Glisten, when they catch the light
But beauty hides the worst of them
They disappear, nowhere in sight
You cannot see the danger, when
You walk across the tundra
The cavern opens up its jaws, then
It carries you, down under
There’s no escape, from the well below
You’ve reached your eternal slumber
And they’ll go back to their violet glow
But your mind, will be torn asunder

I thought April’s prompts were done
Then along comes Will Robinson
Can this get any stranger?
Oh wait, Danger! Danger!
Michelle sure has a weird sense of fun!
But I have to admit, I don’t mind
It’s kind of my way to unwind
I go to some faraway place
Where I can get “lost in space”
And be away from the day to day grind!
April Writing Prompt: Danger, Danger, Will Robinson! – Day 31/30 (Don’t ask lol)

The ground continued to quake
As she appeared, aloft, before them
Wings, the sight of evil fire
This vision of chaos, deplored them
In the air, she floated, athirst
Waited, as she watched them fall
Beguiled, by her ravishing beauty
They never saw the peril, at all

Stairs that lead to no special place
Coveted by ivy, moss, and trees
As I glance up to the top of them
I notice someone looking back at me
Eyes of stone, with chiseled lips
Can he be guarding these paces?
Or is it just my state of mind
That leads me to these faces?
The railing beckons me to climb
Pass this realm of rock, asleep
Careful not to make a sound
Up the stairs, I start to creep
Then stop in my tracks along the way
I’m sure that I heard someone say
“The journey is far beyond the stairs
Adventure awaits you, if you dare”
Surely, it’s the whispering wind
That’s driving me insane
For I refuse to believe a rock
Could be calling out my name
