Vacation Niagara Falls

Stunningly Spectacular!
Written words that cannot define
nor justify describing
this glorious creation
of Mother Nature’s splendor.
Nestled in beautiful wine country
of Ontario, Canada,
horse-drawn carriages whisk you
by fields of purple hues
or down the trendy promenade.
Vociferously she announces her presence
 before she comes into view.
a spectacle like no other.
She is real.
A breath-taking phenomena,
Romantically ageless and timeless.
She is the gateway between
the two great nations
of North America.
A surging, thunderous mass of water,
powerful yet soothing,
torrential yet tranquil
and never speechless,
she is all of these.
Sun-kissed in a rendezvous
of rainbow colors
her water plume dusts you
with her cool delicate mist.
Hauntingly surreal,
she is more than a captivating vision,
no less than a spiritual experience.
She is Niagara Falls.

Wonderfully penned, Liz. My nephew has visited the falls and I have seen the pictures taken by him. Your great imagery matches his description very well and your beautiful words have made it more lively. Warm regards, Bobby
