RAP: Cavern

(for the poetry prompt… This idea is from Susan Wooldridge's Poem Crazy. 1. Find an object and name it 2. describe what it looks like 3. ask it to bring you a quality it possesses.

Cavern 

Deep, dark, dripping water
Engulfing emptiness
Waiting to be filled
Reverberating resonance
Welcomes worship
Soul saturated

Excellent! I often feel like that Cavern as well. Nice picture is it from Carlsbad (spelling?) cavern around San Marcus Texas?

l.l. - thanks - I really enjoyed this prompt!

sojourner - I found the picture from the cavern website - the cavern is in my home state of Alabama. I've never been to Carlsbad but hear it is lovely.
