Vines cascade over waterfalls of silver temptation
a heavy mist of placid rain sprays across the river
as if to beckon unto a merciful spirit
a single tree drifts within the mystic water
singing a lullaby of temptation
to a wondrous, sated soul
Senses perk at the sound
of river flow and whistling wind
eyes closed, taking in the simplicity
of beauty in the form of a whispering whippoorwill
as fish frolic in the rocks below
and plants play with tingling toes
nirvana echoes it's solemn serenade
and dances upon a weary mind

This sang me to imagination. "as fish frolic in the rocks below
and plants play with tingling toes
nirvana echoes it's solemn serenade
and dances upon a weary mind" - these lines are a seranade - a whisper in the ear, a brush of the cheek.
Love, love this.

This piece is just breathtaking, Kris. A beautiful piece and an equally beautiful background. Altogether a marvelous presentation. Good luck in the contest, Sweetie. Hugs, Grams

Beautiful write. Wonderful imagery. Waterfalls are a quite beautiful part of nature. Good luck in the contest.

soothing in it's use of simple and elegant language to reflect the simple need to unwind, can hear the whippoorwill's shrill as it echoes across the river valley that you describe
