Maiden of the Falls

The heat is searing Humidity high Cooling required My body cries To the woods i head For i know of a place Where privacy allows Ones body to grace A ledge of old Amid a clearing of green Where the birds rejoice In this beautiful scene Before i arrive You can hear the sounds Of clear crystal waters In rhapsody rebound I pass through the lush And my eyes behold A maiden so shaped With hair so gold The water cascades From this ledge of old Sparklingly clear Crisp and cold Downwards it flows As my view enthrals A maiden so beautiful Neath the falls Inspired by Carolyn's Haiku " Showering 'Neath the Falls " http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/carolyn.php
