They say, she tells a story without any words
All you have to do is pause and simply watch her flourish
Through the long branches of trees old and new
How she cuts through massive rocks that try to block her way
And flows over the tiny pebbles that people once threw
She doesn’t seem to care how they view her or judge her criss-cross path
For all she knew was to flourish through it all
Changing courses when the obstacles didn’t let her slide through
For one way or the other she was meant to endlessly flow
She moved seamlessly, being her unapologetic self
That grew and outgrew everything that came under her way
Roaring through the wild forests, “I am born this way and this is what I am meant to do”,
She gathered all of her forces and incessantly she moved
Leaving the world to see the marvel that she was
A natural beauty, creating magic wherever she falls ✨
– Ashwini
P.S: This picture was taken at the Smoky Mountain National Park in North Carolina and was shot on my good old iPhone 8. Always fun to try something new in photography! Also, happy weekend!
Hey, good evening. I just read your poem and it is very good, quite intriguing. I went hiking recently and passed by a waterfall so this poem stayed with me while I was reading it. I want to feature this on my poetry corner. I will reblog your post and hopefully, others will visit your page and read more of your work. Well done!
