WHAT IS IT ABOUT A WATERFALL?
WHAT IS IT ABOUT A WATERFALL?
It has the power to beguile…to bewitch…to enchant…to enthrall
Which made me wonder as we stopped to look…
what is it about a waterfall?
Many people we did not know joined us to dawdle in this place.
What is it about a waterfall that brings a smile to every face?
The colors surrounding a waterfall are vibrant, alive and bright
But the waterfall retains its beauty…when viewed in black and white.
Perhaps it is the power…the force…the energy…the sound…
or how something so impressive can fall so effortlessly to the ground.
Perhaps it’s how the mist floats upward or how the water seems to glisten.
Perhaps it’s part of natures’s symphony…if we take the time to listen.
Perhaps what we’re hearing are the sounds of time…we listen…then they’re gone…
Reminding us how nothing is permanent…how everything flows on.
Reminding us to enjoy this moment…this minute…this hour…this day
Before it reaches the edge of the waterfall…and gently cascades away.
