Waves swell and break gently
On the lips of a mighty cave.
The crew manoeuvers the vessel
Undaunted into its mouth.
The luminous glow of twilight
Becomes shrouded in bitter shadow;
The rising swells distracted
By timpanic echoes of dripping water.
A haze of shivering reflections
Bounces around the cave interior
As a fluid decoration.
A lamp is lit at the bow,
Revealing a cavern that journeys
Deep into the mountain:
Tremendous stalagmites threaten from above,
Dripping icy water like sweat
From anxious stone watchmen.
A smooth cascade of water
Creates a vast liquid doorway,
A doorway to an lost underground kingdom.
