Kaiture Falls: Longest One-Drop In the World

I 
                   heard
                and pledged,
                that one day 
             this natural wonder,
         will be experienced by me.
         Thunderous, Roaring from afar.
A narrow mountain stream meandering down the steep side, into a beautiful Falls!

                        O
                        no
                     I won’t 
                    rest a bit, 
                 for “Itanamee”
    folk-lored and worshipped by ancestors,
I was told, angrily swallowed many Porknockers!
From the Potaro River below they cried: “Captain put me ashore”!

                        This
                        high
                   rock mountain,
          Mount Rorima, that is it’s name
         does rise majestically into the sky!
Shared among neighboring countries, this mountain top - Brazil, Guyana and Venezuela.

                         A
                        sight,
                        beauty!
                       beheld in 
                     every beholder 
       who sets eyes upon this ancient god; 
    that replenishes plants and small creatures above;
     Kaiture! Mightily and powerfully pours below!
