Falling Moon

To the natives of Snoqualmie, it means Falling Moon. These are the majestic Snoqualmie Falls of Washington State. This is an acrostic....


Where God created first woman and man,
A spiritual maternity ward.
Salish flume, cultish swoon,
Heaven and earth, umbilical cord.
Incandescent free fall fiord,
Native American's sacred accord.
Gathered strength through powerful flow,
Transformed prayers in pools below.
Oracled legends of earth and moon.
Natural wonder, tourist boom.

Waterfall of series fame,
Often scenes week to week.
Nocturnal mist, blinding spray,
Diverted power toward twin peak.
Elevated famous lodge and spa,
Revelations of Snoqualmie Falls.
