Canyon Falls in Upper Michigan

Come and wonder
as we wander



beyond the
beautiful ferns



to a peaceful
place in the woods



down the boardwalk
we'll keep following
that trail




to the rivers edge



and past the snake



and the stair-
stepping rocks



to the sound of
the falls 



and more falls



until we see the cause
of all that noise 



and slabs of rock cliffs
as though cut with a saw



and the canyon walls
of the rivers bend



and the vines that
crawl those walls



 I hope you enjoyed
our little adventure!

Oh yes, I loved it. There is never enough water falls for me. I love them and love to see pictures of them. I can imagine the sound, and it is a pleasant thing.
Love ya!!!!

Very pretty ~ thanks for taking us along on your walk. Next time, maybe I'll be able to walk it with you (or better yet Thom can give me a piggy back ride).
