Travel Haiku - Iguaca Falls (Brazil) Poem by john tiong chunghoo

Travel Haiku - Iguaca Falls (Brazil)



Iguacu Falls
is there a better audience
for my song?

iguacu falls
it sings from the bottom
of my heart

iguacu falls
it touches the bottom
of my heart


Iguacu Falls
the ballerina arcs
her hands over her head

Iguacu Falls
at the height of their element
earth, water, light, air,

Iguacu Falls
we let nature do
its talking

Iguacu Falls
argentina and brazil
cup us in

Iguacu Falls
argentina and brazil reach out
to embrace us

Iguaca Falls
when argentina and brazil
form a U

The widest waterfalls in the world, Iguaçu Falls consist of 275 falls that form a gigantic semi-circle 8,100 feet long and 270 feet tall. Its natural topography allows for spectacular vistas; at one point, visitors are surrounded by waterfalls for 260 degrees. Follow a long walkway along the canyon to see the impressive Garganta do Diabo (the 'Devil's Throat') , a U-shaped cliff with rushing falls on all three sides forming the border between Brazil and Argentina.
