Beauty and Danger..
Beauty, is danger,
To this am no stranger.
Just ask any lost tourist,
Rescued by a ranger.
I sailed by a picturesque fjord
Was struck by the awesome sight,
Was nailed by the work of the Lord,
Hypothermia's a deadly fight!
Went gliding by the Skeletal coast,
Overawed by the sea and the sands.
It's a pretty yet a hostile host,
Hyperthermia, dehydration at hand.
Snorkelled at a tropical reef,
It's nature's own kaleidoscope.
Stingy jellies gave me the real grief,
Without luck had no real hope!
Skiing on an alpine slope,
Enjoyed the beauty, the thrill.
Got rescued with the aid of a rope,
Hanging by the edge of the hill.
Bathing under a white cascade,
Was overjoyed and burst into song.
Doing so was a risky trade,
Falling wood made the loudest gong.
I'm no cynic, I do love beauty,
Shared with you the wisdom I gained
Warn of danger feel is my duty
You only take the beauty no pain.

Thank You MysteriousLady for visiting and for your kind comment and am more than glad to know that my poem made you smile. Wrote this poem obviously inspired by the beauty of nature and the immediate danger lurking which we overlook when we get overawed.
Cheers!

I wanted to quote much of this but
I will not because it's beautifully
heavy but strikes your reader(s) with
a certain chill.
A grand portion of me..get's it, unfortunately..
Intricately written
