We love to visit the falls, its my favorite place I adore feeling the water drops splash on my face When I look skyward cool water is crashing down This torrent of water’s nature’s jewel in the crown Water crashes down with a thundering sound and flows into the river snaking on the ground Lush foliage grows around the waterfall It is the most beautiful place of them all Picturesque Rhyme Contest Sponsored by Eve Roper 9/22/19

Beautiful poem for a beautiful picture. Waterfalls inspire us. And your poem is a great Picturesque Rhyme!

Hello Jan … can't disagree with you on this score. I love the feel of mist on my face and the coolness a waterfall provides. Thank you Jan for this beauty - Lindsay

In a peaceful world, waterfalls drown out all the irritating sounds, but in our world, waterfalls prevent us from hearing trouble breathing down our necks! Good luck in the contest! Aloha! Rico

There is such a thrill when watching a waterfall. I wanted to visit Niagara Falls for many years and I finally got there in 1994. My husband was working on the East Coast and I got him to take us there. The negative ions in the air lift one's spirits. This is a beautiful entry for the contest Jan. Best wishes on a wonderful win! : ) xxoo
