Spirit Of The Falls

Spirit Of The Falls

From the high place
the water flows down

over
the rocks of time

where

the spirit of the falls
can be found

one can see
under the waters fall
and
one can hear
the spirits call

I have sat for hours
and
listened to the sound
of where waters fall
my spirit can be found

It soothes the soul
and
blesses
the ear gate

where the waters fall
there
is no hate

The sunlight
hits the mist
and
creates a rainbow

where waters fall
and
even flow

over
the rocks of time

where

the spirit of the falls
can be found

I can hear the dynamic falls, pound and surge and twirling... I can see the rainbow softly emerge in a gentle voice that carries a promise, poignant soft and lingering colors, declaring and clinging on the mist...I can hear the still small voice of The Creator of such awesome wonders saying..."For you my beloved...enjoy...and take in all of the beauty of my love for you, be at rest in my true and simple yet abundant display of eternal love" Thank you HC my friend...what a beautiful poem you have offered to all our hearts to capture and enter...wonderful images of sounds, smells, sight, to thoughts of rugged dirt and hard rock, to powerful force of waters unrestrained power, to that soft gentle touch, of the streams relaxing flow after the fall and the pounding crashes..waters liberty and freedom...with a clear direction and embracing function...how very intelligent is the design of My Creator...this is a beautiful picture to me of His pleasure and mercy , grace and loving kindness to the children of men...Thank you HC for sharing, as we may all take home something different..but this is what take...thank you for the gift...have a beautiful day my friend, a beautiful write..."SpiritSong" T

"where waters fall, and even flow, over the rocks of time" these particular words speak volumes HC. this is a very spiritual piece that would be a welcome addition to the ever growing P.O.E.T.S. collection. please let me know if you are interested. thanks Dragonfly.

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
