Niagara sends her watery heralds
Dashing to the depths of hell
Great spiraling mists invade the trembling air
Spewing forth the devil’s legions
Into billowing shrouds of aqueous fire
The rocks explode
Like a thousand roaring lions
Leaping headlong in carnivorous chase
Trumpets sound on the errant wind
And blazing there
From jagged cliffs-
A banner bold
Arcs across the awakening scene-
The Seven Colored Bow
Christened by angelic wings
Shoots its burning arrow deep
Into the darkest doubt of blinking Man
And sets his new-made heart afire
Behold the final triumph of the victor
And know the majesty
Of God.
