These are very expressive, descriptive pieces that make excellent use of all syllables, conveying an appealing message about the full effects of the waterfall on the observer.

This is a beautifully written haiku and 5-7-5. Beautiful peaceful looking photo of the waterfall compliments your words well. Lovely overall presentation.

Reading this wonderfully penned poem with a lovely painting accompanying it, I can see that you are from the "God's Own land'.:):) What more can I say! Same subject. Two different views!

Really good! Ties nature to feeling very well. The two poems are the same but different which is nice. The first poem last line only has three syllables which kinda throws it off from being a haiku

    Thank you very much.the last line has 4 syllables. Deviation was allowed. I thought 'soothes' would be better than 'pacify'.

This Haiku speaks the thunderous sound of waterfalls shuts down your thoughts, though downfall of water upon stony surface is mystic that soothes you (******); well said, well done; thanks for sharing this. ALCREATOR 01092021 WL Day

    thank you very much .I preferred 'soothes' to 'pacifies' though the latter would make the last line five syllables.I am happy you liked the word.What is your opinion?

    You are welcome. I think it is good the way you have it. You can have 5 syllables, but I wouldn't change it.

This is a beautiful poem and the picture is perfect for it. There is something life-affirming about a waterfall, especially the larger ones with swiftly flowing water. They are so full of energy, one can't help but absorb a bit of it. Nicely done.
