That’s wonderful & I love the way your poem explores language, & how “go-to” figures of speech, like water roaring, might not always work. Love this poem.
I love the exploration of roaring and the way you show the differences in water's sound, although I have to admit that at Niagara, I thought it sounded as hungry and angry as any tiger.
Oh, wow, I love this exploration of the roar sound throughout the poem, and the quiet argument against it in water's case. Then, that last stanza creates sounds of its own, through science!
I will be thinking of this, and listening closely, on my next trip to falling water...in the Multnomah Falls area of Oregon to visit kids and grandbaby. We've been on various hikes to see and hear the falls there!
Mine too. That show made me happy, as did the books. While reading your poem the theme music played in my head automatically & is now stuck there.
I love the clean, simple structure & syntax here
