West Thumb geysers: LAPC

At West Thumb, magma boils below

Cooled by lake water’s ebb and flow

Alkaline frosting marks the shore

Thermophiles collect, framing more

Steam from geysers rises and falls

Enchanting all who hear its call

Pictures taken at West Thumb Geyser Basin in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge (LAPC) – Cool Colors
