Absolute wonder
Of that which passes fast
Like it never happened before
In deed
Glimmering lights shine on
Fading endless tones and tones of mirth
Of birth
Of life
Of death
Crystal waters lap ancient rocks
Slowly slipping down the falls
Mother Nature stares on
With a story to tell
Silence screams all
At nightfall nothing can be heard
But
The sound of raging waters downstream
Tall trees speaking to each other by whistling branches
Cashew nut boughs lying low to taste the waters
At midnight
All but mother moon
Shine on to touch every one
Who sleeps beneath such beauty
Please tell me what you think

it's amazing how much beauty is in nature. how much wonder is in the world. i think as humans, we've forgotten how to appreciate that beauty. we no longer notice the trees swaying in the breeze, or the grass beneath our feet. here, in your poem, you've reminded us what's out there (and with such vivid detail/thank you!). wonderful poem... oh, and where did the title come from? just wondering.
Cheers
