JUST IMAGE ~ A POEM

[Julie]

 just imagine

 drops of water

bright with sunlight

 cascading

the falls

there is no wearisome

just an eternity

of all

there's a constant

excitement

that hisses and churns

that splashes on rocks

with an effervescent burn

we'll be there

it won't be long now

the ocean is a waiting

with tales for to tell

when we've all

gathered

a light will be there

returning to Heartland

to finish our

prayer

Pistyll Rhaeadr is a place where the artistry and enchantment of nature rarely fail to amaze. The waterfalls have differing moods and atmospheres, sometimes delicate, or mighty and roaring, or intensely beautiful.

You can see simulacra, or the shapes of faces and things in the water and rocks, in different lights. But it's all about more than what we can see or look at. The falls have a way of subtly changing us, bringing messages and giving a gift. These photos give a taste
