a land scape

by Charlie Morgan

footprints of the wind drape
the southern slopes, while

the Sun's reflections, refractions
set the waterfall a-fire, a-flame;

slowly the yellow-hot ashes of a firefall
turn a paler hue as coolness of dark sets in.

i turn and go, my memories come, take it away.

Some landscapes take our breath away and in return we copy them into our memory. Good write Charlie.

Some landscapes forever etched in the mind. You catch one of those so vividly in this poem

I like how the waterfall turns into a firefall because of the sun refractedness and all! Way cool brother. :)
