Poetry
You hear it 'fore you get there,
Louder than the raucous "caw"
Of the biggest, blackest raven in the land.
Its rumble and its roar
Make a wild and eerie call
And you HEARD it 'fore you SAW it...
That mountain waterfall.
Up through the trees you caught a glimpse
Of vapor drifting high,
As the thunder of it
Echoed through the trees.
Then you stepped into the clearing
Like the throne room of the Lord,
And you felt like falling humbly to your knees!
Oh, the majesty and power
So personified....In awe
You walked the weathered surface to its base.
You wiped the moisture from your eyes,
SOME from the falls...SOME tears
So grateful God has led you to this place.
It's not marred by man's insertion
Of self-serving accolades,
Just the purity of how...God made it be.
Its noise and its vapor beckon all who wander near
And they HEAR and SEE His message...."Follow Me!"

Howard, this is really vivid. You stepped into this "clearing Like the throne room of the Lord". One can see, feel and hear "The majesty and power So personified". Lovely poem.
