Soft petals
of foaming white water
drift lazily through the air
just as; petals plucked
from a budding flower
strewn into the warm
summer air;
catching each other
at the bottom -
dancing in duo – waltz
beautiful strides, taken
hand in hand,
as they crumble to the shallow
rocky bottom...

waterfalls
I don't know if it's alright to uses another piece of nature to represent another -- but I did - just going out on a limb there -- =]
Tell me how I did,
~Enjoy!

This is an interesting way to look at waterfalls. I never seemed to find them "lazy," and other people in this contest are all about the raging cateracts, but you've got something different going on, and I like it. Nice work.
