The waterfall

Sierra

Like the waterfall
Rushing down
all around.
the sound drowns out
not only music everywhere
but all signs of life
drawing all attention to itself
its majestic motion.
its fresh smell.
its refreshin splashes.
its sound sooths
it wont let any thought interupt.
now your under its spell.
hypnotized
