The Sound of Falling

I know there
was sound,
but could you hear
the falling of
a briny iridescent
orb as it slid from
the mud puddles
of my pleading
vision,

to the
swollen ruby
banks where you
placed your
whispers against
last night...
then

fall
  fall
fall

landing atop
a swollen, rising
blush to roll
so very
s l o w l y
to the hardened
peak ... And
linger

I know there
was sound...
Why didn't you hear
......the invitation

"...I am a river in winter,quiet in the eyes of most butdeep,swift and full of life to one, lucky enough to fall through the ice."

I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps

I felt as though I were truly free-falling!
