Niagara Falls Escaping

raging waters trying to escape
                              falling over the edge
                        making it, into Canada, at last

lol..making it into Canada, at last. I was born near the Falls but not in a bucket. I didn’t get to ride the maid of the mist until I was an adult. But oh what fun!

Thank you Harry. Just like Vietnam war many went to Canada to avoid the war. Canada has always been a place to escape.. Thank you Harry, hope your doing fine in Aussie Country. God bless you...

They are indeed spectacular, I have had the pleasure of seeing the falls many times. Each time they take my breath away.

They are spectacular. I probably try to make it there once every three years. Id go more, but being scared of heights makes it a little difficult. I appreciate your comments, Richard thank you.

Thank you Jan. Believe me it is worth it. Enjoy the total experience, tasty restaurants near by. All the wonderful people from all over the world. The falls at night. The surreal feelings at night with the mist rising up, the powerful roar of the rushing water. You got me wanting to write another poem about it. Lol.
