Niagara Falls

She was gushing

And she was dripping

Swallowing me whole

And losing control

She was Niagara Falls

I treaded endlessly

Keeping afloat patiently

In her spiraling whirlpool

Nestling inside her crowned jewel

She was Niagara Falls

These waves came crashing down on me

I was the captain of the high sea

With each given thrust a high swell

And an echoing vigorous yell

She was Niagara Falls

Swollen with a sudden rogue wave

Everything soaked, I do crave

She was a tsunami of quivering flow

A spray wetting me from head to toe

She was Niagara Falls

She gave me whiplash and took me for a ride

Releasing the gates and unleashing the flood tide

Pouring with such force that nothing can escape

It is her juices that engulf me with this great damp drape

She was Niagara Falls

She was gushing

And she was dripping

Swallowing me whole

And losing control

She was Niagara Falls
