The volcano

 

The earth’s floor crumbled whilst  streaks of lightning cracked in the sky like a vast braided whip. Lava seeped out from within the volcano. The volcano, it seemed like a beast; evil beyond all reason!  Heat pounded upon me. Molten magma and lava enveloped the peak of the mountain. The earth shook, as torrents of golden death descended over the helpless countryside. More hot lava oozed over the side of the mountain. Clouds of volcanic ash flocked over the landscape cloaking anything and everything in its path. Chaos and ruckus reigned as the mighty beast awoke to smote his anger upon the world. In the starry night sky a sliver of white lighting in the shape of a snake’s forked tongue lashed out in the distance. I gasp in fear “Eeeee”. It felt as if my heart was beating out of my chest. ‘When will this mayhem END’?!
