Waterfalls frozen by half

An icy stare, an endless glare
I meet full in the face

A snowy pass, and sheets like glass
Have led me to this place

My snowshoes, and my deep bruise
Are all that I have packed

And preparation, for this veneration
Are all that I have lacked

A taciturn mood, a thoughtful brood
Happen when I reflect

On frozen walls, of mighty falls
In her beauty decked

There is a measure, a hidden treasure
Beneath her constant thunder

What histories, and deep mysteries
From her I could plunder

The air is frozen, but if chosen
I would forever stay

To watch the light, for sheer delight
In her mistings play

There is a nook, where we can look
At she who's ever speaking

Sit awhile, let out that smile
Which through your lips is peeking

All frustration, and consternation
Are churned up in her pool

And this sensation, by gradation
leaves my troubled mind cool

The wind whips, as my heart sips
From her grace filled song

And out of all, by nature's call
My soul does here belong
