Red Rock Canyon Waterfalls

There was a time
when waterfalls
fell over rims of red,
and sunrise broke
upon the scene
to promise better things; 

but wells dried up
and bitter springs
were all that came to be.
The sun set dark
upon the rims
were once pure waters flowed. 

Oh, to see the sunrise break
upon the scene again…
when rimmed of red,
rock canyon walls
spill o’er
with waterfalls!

While your poem speaks of a particular place and time, I have internalized this as my life. The beauty of what was and the desire to have this peaceful beauty return to my life. You have given this heart much to consider, but still find peace and beauty if what was. Thank you for this poem. It means more to me than mere words can convey. God bless you.

This seems to come from an overflow of the heart and soul, Cryssa, and, as Charlie says, seems profoundly earnest and sincere. The repeats of "red rims" makes me think of sleeplessness and tear-stained eyes which seems to be the prevailing mood here. Very strong images back up the emotion and the exclamation mark at the end is very well-earned. So lovely to read you again and thank you for your generosity of comment on my own pages. xx

A beautifully flowing contemplative poem with absolutely luscious sonic elements!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Texas, Karen Lynn. :D

Overflowing with musicality, and something more--genuine earnestness. It's positively beautiful, Cryss, and I think, publishable. You should send it off in quest of print.

Fly, little poem, fly... --Charlie

such a loss of beauty--your writing, however, lovely
