Hi Treischel,
what wonderful pictures you have taken. Two identical with different weather scenes.
Nature is wonderful and your poem describes the pictures perfectly.

This deserves ****** stars but I would need 10 and they only give six.
The poem focus the difference a season can bring.
The poem story line development: during the summer a great waterfall, how the water's hum their songs while the waters tumble into the chasm deep. In winter the waterfall frozen, with children playing beneath the frozen walls the danger seems no more with solid ground.
A wonderful mental picture this draws and a quieter space.
The rhythm is as a slinky moving the reader forward.
The emotion felt the awe nature can bring.
Keep on writing.

Thank you raj. That was a wonderful analysis. Actually, the water is humming under the ice.

I like the phrase, winter's will is most profound. When a waterfall becomes frozen the deep freeze is profound and must be extremely cold to cause such a happening. Your description of this event has a respect for the power of cold that can stop water from cascading. well done brrrr

This is an excellent poem. The imagery is great, the rhyming flows like that waterfall would in the summer. Good use of the format, as well. I would happily pay for a book of such poems.

Your pictures are great and really illustrated your verse well. Your poem flows smoothly and captures the change from summer to winter. You create strong images and provoke keen insight into "Winter's Will." Well done
