Revived

The roar I heard 
before ever I arrived
Tempting and enticing 
this place had been described

Closer I could feel 
a gentle spray upon my cheeks
From deep inside excited sounds  
emerge as squeals and squeaks 

This force from Mother Nature 
now appears before my eyes 
Such joyfulness to witness 
wondrous gifts that she provides

Now in a trance I lay supine 
her gift envelops, I'm in her arms
This heavenly feeling so divine
seeps into my body and into my mind

Immersed within her power
as she gently swamps my soul
To restore my equilibrium 
Revived ~ I am now whole 

A place to go when I feel low
A secret kept 
No one must know
