 The cloud maker The gentle kiss of mist Where rainbows dance eternal The silver, milky roar Billowing love potion into the air Romance Flair Of dancing waters A fantasia of light play Dropping gracefully Into a perpetual breaking wave Above, I stand on edge of railed cliffs Allowing both Canada and America to rise up into my senses Each with tender bliss of equal beauty The bottomless blue whirlpool The bowl of swirling magnitude The greatest force of water Falling over the edge of the earth Filling my heart full of magic My words fail me [This message has been edited by rwood (edited 11-21-2001).] |

Beautiful Regina....exactly how I feel when I look at it myself. If you get the chance, go there in the winter when the mist from the falls covers the trees and it turns to ice...spectacular. Great write as usual. Hugs, Nancy. ~I've loved you forever, in lifetimes before.~ |

Nancy is rigth Niagara Falls is fantastic in the winter, but magnificant any time of the year. Now Regina, you must come to B.C. to see the mountains, snow, and all the fantastic scenery. You will have money left over as you dollar is worth what $1.65 here? You did a great job of describing the falls, and can't you still hear that roar long after you leave, it is amazing. |

rwood, very beautiful discriptions here. I have often visited the falls from my Toronto home at different times. My favorite time is at night when the high powered coloured lights are shone from the Canadian side onto both the American and Canadian falls. It always makes me feel closer to my American cousins.

There are, indeed, sights in which mere words cannot describe. The Grand Canyon is one, Alaskan glaciers another and Niagra certainly belongs there, too. For being speechless, you describe the undescribable very well  |

The wonders of nature do well in inspiring the mind and hearts of those that allow and your beautiful verse is a wonderful reflection of just that. I truely love the freshness and the uniqueness of your pieces and this one is no exception. Excellent writing. |

Beautiul Regina. I have been there many times, but not for some years. Thank you for the memories. And thanks to Rex for posting the night pics. I've never seen it at night, but now I have an excuse to go back, for it certainly does look beautiful at night If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
