Ninety-Four

A Poem by Lydia

94 steps to Freedom

where the river falls

down

  down

    down

 

beautiful

  roaring

flowing

  roaring

beautiful

      wild

          free

 

94 steps to freedom

where she's free

freedom

  freedom

    down

flowing

   falling

     down

 

94 steps and you see

the water falling over

flowing over

rushing over

where it's free

 

she rushes too

step

step

step

 

91 more

and there's

freedom

waiting

 

her soul escapes

and falls

seven hours

half mile

94 steps

and it's free

 

over the edge

over the falls

she's

     finally

        flowing

     free

Neat idea. Very original.
Is this about Niagara Falls, by chance? Or did I misinterpret everything?
Very visual either way. Good job!
