Waterfall, I recall You were born inside a raindrop When the drop slipped out Of an orchid's mouth You were much too small to tumble You could neither roar nor rumble Not a cymbal crash, you could barely splash Over little stones you stumbled Then begins the slow connection In some H2O affection Very serpentine How your parts combine And agree on one direction Iguazu, is it true You were once an April shower? A few crystal beads On a bamboo reed? Do you still believe you're strongest? That your river runs the longest? Wait till you release In a sea of peace With the love you longed for longest
