How do we explore - - the depths of an abyss

In thickened woodlands there are hidden falls
noticed by few and you stop - nature calls,
you gaze rapt in wonder as waters flow
into the depths of caves no creatures go.

If you have wings, fly swift with the current
feel exhilaration with the torrent
but reaching the bottom of this chasm
you know this journey is no phantasm.

From on top, their depths seem like an abyss
but the mighty falls turn streams bathed in bliss
swirling lazily through thick banks of moss
where waters run deep in rivers to cross.

A final grand drama Nature now plays
rivers curtsy to the seas so we praise.

This is so beautiful, and serene, it felt like i can see through your well painted and woven words that flow so seamlessly. I especially love the delicate manner your opening lines are articulated. With excellent rhymes, leaving a captivating cadence. How creative. Pleasure reading this. A fave for me. Sending you light
