The union of Heaven and Earth...


To the Snoqualmie people of Western Washington, Snoqualmie Falls is sacred--“…the place where First Woman and First Man were created by the Moon and where prayers were carried to the Creator by great mists that rise from the powerful flow…”

 

 

 


i
fall
like
water
and
flow
into
your
essence
Two rivers merge,
spill then EXPLODE
IN STEAM AND FOAM
HEAVEN AND EARTH

Lin, "Cascade" is an endowment of poetic expression

very lovely feeling to read
the history of this glorious waterfall is also very beautiful
