As we enter the darkness,
Leaving the light behind.
Cool and Moist,
The air gives a chill,
Everything here is dark and still.

Wonderous formations
Form like a wall, etching
Tunnels and shadows
Resembling long halls.

A dark, bottomless lake
Cut out of the earth,
Reminds me of this
Great Planet's birth.

Formations of rock
Millions of years old,
Made of droplets of water
That feel really cold.

As you leave the darkness,
Feeling tired and beat,
The sun is shining brightly
You can feel the heat.

You'd like to return to
The cool dark cave,
Where time stops.

Memories to Save

Feelings of wonder fill my mind
As we enter the darkness,
Leaving the light behind.
Cool and Moist,
The air gives a chill,
Everything here is dark and still.

Wonderous formations
Form like a wall, etching
Tunnels and shadows
Resembling long halls.

A dark, bottomless lake
Cut out of the earth,
Reminds me of this
Great Planet's birth.

Formations of rock
Millions of years old,
Made of droplets of water
That feel really cold.

As you leave the darkness,
Feeling tired and beat,
The sun is shining brightly
You can feel the heat.

You'd like to return to
The cool dark cave,
Where time stops.
Memories to save.

I'd like to think that when our time comes it is the images of memories we've saved in our minds, memories like this poem of yours.

I have been to several place similiar to your description but I could never find the words that could eclipse that feeling and the sight that overwhelms you deep inside.

A magnificient poem.
