Waterfall

Waterfall

Escaping
from far confined spaces
longing for freedom over the rim

Highlighted
flowing wavy tresses
cascading over rocky shoulders

Rushing sounds
of an endless stampede
racing and galloping through the air

Frothy fluffs
of white bubbly splendor
splashing, glistening in the sunlight

Brenda Meier-Hans Date: 10/27/2014 12:33:00 PM Very beautifully written Sandra. I especially love the third stanza, because when I think of waterfalls the loudness of them is the first that comes to mind.
