Poem 13 - The Dark Cave. By Vijay Simhadri.

I abseiled down into the mysterious cave, The bats were hovering around knowing not how to behave, There was a green watery stream on the ground, Travelling past my feet and all around. I switched on my flashlight, The surroundings were as dark as night, The stalagtites spiralled downwards. The stalagmites climbed upwards. There was an atmosphere of dust, I thought to myself really I must, Delve deeper into the caves, Through the floor's watery waves.
