Waterfall Poem by Chandra sekharan

Waterfall



Narrow dark gap between two dangerous mountains
One with amazing waterfall taller than the other one
Void almost filled up with gushing water
I rolled down in a winch, several thousand feet from crown
Using motorized rollers and rope
Sliding down on rocky surface with thick jungles on either side
Landed in a projecting balcony made of steel and wood
Balcony appeared to be one of the riskiest creation
Droplets of super fast waterfall spilled in the balcony
Stretched my arms to feel the droplets of water
Felt as though I would collapse along with the balcony
Impact of trillions and trillions of water falling from
Several thousand feet above
Hissing sound of falling water was heard from the day
Universe was born
Would, continue till the last day of the universe
Mother of fall is broad, quiet, deep, river
Flowing on upper strata several thousands of miles away
Suddenly it branches off, like a highway bypass
Narrowed down, picks up violent speed and
Finally suicidal dive to unknown depth
Eternal song of water lifted me to a heavenly abode
