Deep cave under falls.
Stalactite rhythm echoes
From eons of drips.


Inspired by Raul's Rhythm of the Falls

I like how you decided to describe what was behind the water and made that just as important as the falls itself. Congratulations on your placement in the contest!

Raul's contest has inspired some amazing writes and this is an outstanding entry for the competition. Indeed, it takes "eons of drips" for the stalactites to form. There are caves in North Florida where they explain the history of the stalactite formations. You describe them beautifully! Love, Carolyn
