waterfall lovers

she picked a flower growing near the river and placed it in her hair, it was a beautiful red, it showed so well in her dark hair, she trailed her hand in the cool water and the spray from the waterfall felt cool on her face.

He walked out of the water as if he was part of it and smiled at the girl who sat waiting, his skin glistened and the water fell in rivers down his body making it seem like he was a part of the river.

He held out his hand and she placed hers into his, he pulled her into his arms and lifted her high swinging her around, she laughed and kissed him, then they seemed to disappear into the water falling softly over the rocks.

The tour guild walked into the clearing and turned to the people there, he had been bringing people here for years and he still felt the two souls of the lovers who drowned so long ago as if it was yesterday.

Thou art a Jewel Lady, indeed!~ SMILE. This is so beautiful my dear. So beautiful. I love the story, although it is sad, there is still a sweetness in knowing these lovers are together forever. 'Tis not a watery grave, but a space of timeless love. I so enjoyed the images you've created in my mind. Thank you for sharing this treasure. I look forward to more such adventures.
