Firefall Poems | Examples


The Horsetail Fall

I was a nascent virgin stream
Born to glabrous mountain king
On the unflinching love his dream
The dark damsel of sky he fling.

On her rapture and cry I grown
Broken the rules with fickle friends
Freely flown as my growing brawn
Smoothing curves of fine couthy bends.

One day I reached the fall of love
Met your golden face and quiver
Fallen blind on your hands I calve
My silver hair known as river.

Mating, jiggling and blushed in red
Flown to the deep, deep to the bed.



(Horsetail Fall, located in Yosemite National Park in California, is a seasonal waterfall that flows in the winter and early spring. If Horsetail Fall is flowing in February and the weather conditions are just right, the setting sun illuminates the waterfall, making it glow orange and red. This natural phenomenon is often referred to as the "Firefall")

Searching For Myself

FROM THE GREAT FIREFALL I CAME, 
IS PAIN BETTER THAN THE GRAVE, 

I CROSSED SEAS OF BLAME,
WE WERE DRINKING BEAUTY WITH OUR EYES, 

DEEP INSIDE MY BLOOD BEGINS TO SPOIL,
LIKE A LION IN A CAGE MY REGRETS ARE FULL OF RAGE, 

MY HALO OF THORNS HAD ME MISTAKEN FOR AN ANGEL,

I POUND MY FEET TO THE GROUND,
ONLY TO KEEP UP WITH THE BEAT OF MY ANCESTORS, 

OUR PATH BEFORE US WAS WRITTEN IN STONE,
WASHED AWAY BY STORMS OF UNKNOWN,

I SCATTER MY ASHES AROUND THE MOON, WILL IT COME BACK AS ME OR A FLOWER IN BLOOM ?

Firefall

Firefall,
         the fire fell,
                out of heaven
                       straight to hell.

  Fallen angel
        burning wings
             how the touch of
                    you still stings.

   I know I'll never care again,
       for falling angels on the wind,
             who take you  with them as they go
                  through the vortex,down below.

  to spiral down,and in that spin,
       to show you things that might have been.
             caught between the earth and sky,
                 your love can't live,your love won't die.

  and when the wings have burned away,
       it's just a soul who's gone astray.
           mere mortals cannot bear such pain,
              as fallen angels in the rain.

   the fire goes out 
      and love must die,
           when angels can't
                  reclaim
                             the 
                                  sky...............
