we descend stone steps
deeper into valley
rainforest-like closeness
amid lush greenness
falls fill ears as we near your spot
and then we arrive
to see pillar of water
“plunging downward”
sound thunderous now
Gitche Manitu
speaking across ages to you
and now to me
we follow winding pathway
until the river widens
and becomes a pool
so we can wade in the cool refreshment
and hear your splashing voice in our souls
