Everlasting

Tis' timeless this cathedral green A constant play of exquisite transition Lofting tribute with flawless composition Unerring to the senses embellished serene Above the hushed and restful peace The thunderous water speaks aloud And falls like torrents from Neptune's cloud Transcending its glorified masterpiece The rushing fierceness of cascading stream Like the mother lion's roar of wrath That nothing in the wake shall be spared in its path Tumbling into the steel mouthed rock strewn ravine Its majestic, profound, and enduring footprint Flows past the lushness of its own genesis A Shangri-La, a Utopia, a perfectly blended precipice Crashing far below while vaporous breath escape in its ascent And below in the placid quietude be still The calming pool of water's mist imbues The harmonious state of rainbow hues In the midst of doves of gentle will Ah! So soft it speaks in its gentle din Enfolding gratitude in our hearts To be mindfully given for peace doth impart The beauteous wonder of nature therein September 19, 2019
