You did a super job with your quatern because the repeated line is fresh in each stanza and flows smoothly from line to line. There is something beautiful about sensing God's presence in Nature.

Ah, Yvonne, your poem practically sings! I adored it! I can just imagine how beautiful it would be inside the waterfalls -- like a cathedral indeed! Even that last stanza, that one might think would be spooky, wasn't -- it was other-worldly, but spiritual.

I enjoyed reading your poem. The photo you chose set the mood immediately. Your descriptive words made me feel as though I was gazing up at the waterfall. I felt the midst on my cheeks. Well done!

Would be lucky if the thing didn't freeze. Good poem. Are you guys getting any snow up there where you are? Colder than a mother-in-law kiss here.
Stay warm, Arkie.

    We've had ice for two days, and yes, it's that cold here. Never can tell, though, it will probably be 70 degrees tomorrow. Weird weather.

    Like the old-timers, they were said. Stick around, and the weather will change. Stay warm, Arkie.

You brought the repeating waterfall to life in your poem here and there is something quite powerful about the strength of a waterfall, the noise and the eagerness can make us wake up to nature, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

    I think there's something mystic about a waterfall. Thanks, Dolly.

Your refrain line really accentuates the
Lovely roar of waterfalls. Nicely described in this quatern poem Yvonne. I think waterfalls, whether a trickle or masses of water, are always wonderful to see and this one pictured looks spectacular.
Cheers

You make it look easy... Sign of your talent to be sure! Your phrasing is delicate...like a wayward breeze, stirring my smile! Seamless weaving of that repeating line!

This quatern, The Waterfall, has the proper formatting and finds the spiritual connection with both nature and God in this peaceful yet powerful scene. Nice.

    Thank you. Waterfalls invoke many feelings, I think.

The words are as beautiful as the picture. It makes you feel like you are there and alive. The peaceful feelings can be felt just looking at the picture. Thank you for posting such a great poem.
