Rushing Waters

A photograph is to the eyes what words are to an experience.

Is the following saying true? “A picture is worth a thousand words. “

Kicking Horse River Natural Bridge, Yoho National Park
Volcán Rincón de la Vieja, Costa Rica
Bracebridge, Ontario, Canada
Mistaya River and Canyon, Banff National Park

The nature of rushing waters speaks for itself, echoing memories throughout my life, teaching me symbolically, introspectively.

Crashing over rocks

shaping all, it mocks.

What do you hear?

Listen! Watch! My heart!

Rushing waters flow,

power’s beauty show.

What do you see beyond sight?

Feel beyond expression?
