Stalagmites and Stalactites

#blogging101 #napowrimo #day19  #caves #dragons

Water moves, winding on

through the open mouth

of a mountain cave

 

Each drop makes its way

carving grooves in the roof

dropping gently on the floor

 

Lucky drops cascade down

transported to colourful rocks

at the waterfalls end

 

Those drops left behind

Cling to the rock

making dragons teeth shine

 

As moonlight falls on

these pearly whites – minerals

hold on for dear life
