Niagara Falls
Poetry Project
Stupendous river ― mighty cataract! You excite my wonder ― that's a fact. I love the music of thy roaring In awful torrents ever pouring. No Bard Untitled Both truth and poetry ― "that's a fact" ― 'Tis truth indeed that you are crack'd; That you're a Bard is poetry, Or in plain prose, an arrant lie.
