Persusasive Waters

persuasive     “    “      “      “    “  “   “   waters in gravitational pull
  plummeting   “   “     “    “   “     “    “  in the midst; a misty rainbow
   of flamboyant  “   “     “      “      “   fall. clouds, mountains,
     shrubbery        “     “      “    “   - the ups and downs
           of the Catskill school’s Church, his Niagara.

   mohicans on the ledge…legend of a New York autumn
        red leaves, white foam, yellow and orange burns
my muse is on fire…flames leaping…honey of heavenly art

I appreciate you so much! This poem was not meant to fit into a frame, however after I started it, the picture of a Falls came to me! I really am thankful for your comment!! Hugs!

Thank you, Andrea! I start writing then it starts to take shape. I separated the beginning words, then I had an aha thought of the Falls! :) Hugs
