Teardrops Of A Waterfall

As the water cascades over the rocks
And gravity pulls it, to the stream below,
When the sun shines just right
Amongst the spray of the falls
Is a beautiful rainbow.
But, when I look to the top
Of that cascading water come to call,
It reminds me of the love lost
Crying the teardrops of a waterfall.

Peace and serenity guide me
They surround me with a gentle calm,
As I sit on the porch of my cabin
Watching the breeze blow the palm.
Tenderly I sit there as I rock
Looking to see the height so tall,
Thinking of what we could have gained
Feeling the teardrops of a waterfall.

There were promises made and broken
Dreams that were meant to be,
As the water crashes the rocks below
It reminds me of a turbulent sea.
I sit in the rocking chairs of ours
And knew we could of had it all,
But thinking back it was a dream
Those tears from a waterfall.

you have an incredible way w/words, robert

That rocking chair might aswell be a boat cause i'm right along with you in the turbulance of this ocean we call life. Great write, Robert.

Thank you bigblue...just dwelling I guess. Just got inspired to write that no more than ten minutes ago.

Thanks Brenda...glad you liked it. Thanks for the comment too sweetie.

Aww life and all its turbulence in the end we will see no matter how rocky things get it will be worth it all when the sea calms.

The feelings of emotion may calm, but that waterfall will still flow..thanks Kristi...

Awww true but then we will see the beauty of that waterfall not the turbulence it leaves against the rocks. Instead we will see how it caresses them, more of a embrace.

We might remember what might have been but look forward to what will be. Beautiful write Robert.

Thank you Pam, that's what I try to do.

This was just wonderful. I love waterfalls, but I never thought of them that way. Will have to look again.

Wonderful write, (((Robert)))!! Very nice! I love it!!

They are beautiful sweetie, and that is the place where I will be one day. Only I won't be thinking of the bad, but the future of what may come over them falls.


Thanks Erica, I knew you would like it.

I can see the tear drops...
Lovely write (((Robert)))

Beautiful write Robert but remember after the water falls and hits the rock it then smooths out for the new adventure farther down the river

Yes, after all the crashing of the water, it does get calm into a pool of sereness. Thank you Cat.

Thanks Susan...it is so good to see you back. Hope you're doing better sweetie.
