Oh...lava lamp, so mesmerizing...a float with solar flares. spectrum engaging Shakespearian dramas...atlas to world wide journeys...
unfamiliar places...beyond games to play...
love ever so peaceful to the extent of one's
mind to grasp
Forever changing shapes to form visions...
not one like another, swirling our minds with
kaleidoscope turns of crystal solidified gems
in three-dimensional soothing chimera...a
fanciful plan in transitive transition to
transgression for meaningful adventures
~A decoration for declartions of the mind~

Lava lamps are making something of a comeback so this very descriptive piece is very timely. You have captured the attraction of the lamp very well and your phrase "soothing chimera" is masterful.
I really liked this, and of course the last line said it all. Lava lamps, akin to the great bard Shakespeare. Oh there are so many lines, "three-dimensional soothing chimera" is just one. Good.
You amaze me with the cornucopia of words for us to feast our eyes upon! So wonderfully penned by Lady Vivian... a true visionary in her time. Joy L. Hale
