Fall Like A Waterfall

When you fall down
Fall graciously like the waterfall
Falling down yet with poise
Falling down yet with charm
A fall with breathtaking serenity
A fall that turns the redwoods green
All the while knowing and accepting
That you will fall on hard, rocky boulders
That you will fall with a deafening thud
But it will never deter your determination
Even when the stubborn rocks tear you apart
Even when the poignant pain eats you up
You will soon collect yourself up
From the bits and pieces scattered around
You will soon drive down the stream
Cheerfully giggling and chattering
Down the curves and slopes
With a playful banter
As if you had always been there
As if you were always meant to be there

Hi! I’m Eivine, a writer who loves to prance around with words! Writing had been my ultimate passion ever since I learned to hold my pencil in the toddler days. Being a single child who didn’t have the luxury of YouTube, cartoons and video games of the present generation, my besties for life where books! My mother was the one who introduced me to the fantastic world of words that wove tales and poetry. One day when she returned from work, she had a big book in her hand. It was Enid Blyton’s “The Naughtiest Girl In The School.” I took it awestruck and asked her how I’m going to finish reading such a big book. She asked me to try it once and to both her and my surprise, I finished reading it in a stretch without even taking a break. That was my first step into the world of books, words, reading, and writing.
