the gorge trail

Folder: 
Delicate

as i sat facing the waterfall i closed my eyes and grew more still with every breath. first my legs stopped swinging over the side of the brick wall, then my hands lay still in my lap with my fingers intertwined, then my mind became still as i felt a gentle caress over my shoulders and neck. the breeze soothed me as the sound of the waterfall resonated the way the wind howled between the trees. as i opened my eyes I looked up the to find three hawk circling the gap of the waterfall between the trees at the top of the gorge. i shut my eyes once more and felt the stillness envelop me once more. deep breaths centered my restless soul until i opened my eyes once more. as my eyes opened my gaze landed upon the rocks protruding from the flowing creek. if i were a turtle, this is where i would bask. though I am human and all i can do is embrace the present to make this moment everlast.
