Enchanting beauty of waterfalls
Waterfalls have impressive power and beauty of nature. Shimmering and falling, breaking into a thousand shards of spray. Crashing water scares and attracts soul. Great Russian poet, writer and painter Mikhail Lermontov compared waterfalls with human soul – “Many quiet rivers start from noisy waterfalls, but none of them jumps and does not foam up to the sea. But it is often a sign of great peace of mind, and hidden forces…”

Drugs just have never interested me, I have other ways to achieve a rush. I rock climb, bungee jump, and hike waterfalls for MY excitement… Shannon Elizabeth quotes

Leisure is a form of silence, not noiselessness. It is the silence of contemplation such as occurs when we let our minds rest on a rosebud, a child at play, a Divine mystery, or a waterfall. Fulton J. Sheen quotes (American religious, 1895-1979)

Waterfalls
Waterfalls such a beautiful sight
So peaceful and quiet
The water shimmers as it falls
Blue and clear

Hear the whisper in the air
As the water flows around
Listen at the sound
As it calms you down

It lets you think
Your mind in a spin
As you wonder
At the amazement of a waterfall

It is graceful like a swan
As it flows down
It is like a gentle breeze
Such a tender touch

Waterfalls can touch your soul
Your heart
Make you wonder and think
What beauty nature brings
