Waterfall

cascading sheets of silver water spill incessantly into the lake thundering beauty before our eyes beckons us to bathe in radiance lost in froth we find ourselves engulfed by nature’s pulse, shimmering delight lost in love my heart is pounding too falling with the water - into you Written Oct. 30, 2014 for the SOME FORM OF CRYSTALLINE Contest of nette onclaud Now for A Strand (1063) Poetry Contest

I don't think it gets much better than this, particularly in terms of a concluding line. Exquisite, to put it conservatively. It soars above a 7. You're a remarkably gifted poet, Andrea. Congrats--and hugs.
