August 20 Word of the Day: Uproarious
Fabric only air and water
Turns sooner rather than later
Hundreds of miles down to touching
First leaf stone scale circles rushing
Uproarious waterfalls
Inside white haze unfreezing down
Showers shining darkening shown
Light mingling grey mass loosened speed
Edgeless almost everywhere need
Uproarious waterfalls
Sheoak Hopetoun Triplet Erskine
Kalimna Carisbrook Sabine
Beauchamp and other up signposts
Awash in storm above the coasts
Names out of mind aged out by stream
Head filled with sound stilled by extreme
Uproarious waterfalls
Why the physics takes up the slack
Where the clarity turns to black
What the answer is at the time
Whence goes water hundreds of lines
How the levels break into space
When the thunder below makes peace
Uproarious waterfalls
Airily when stonily as
Colourful like solidly is
Riverine down glossily to
Spaciously in urgently go
Tempesting this tempering thus
Fulfilling all fast filing must
Uproarious waterfalls
Spit spot sputter froth bubble smooth
Edge moss feather twig rainbow soothe
And more big rain gumleaf fern-tree
And more rain last decades burnt trees
And small rains from treetops bird dreams
And more rains on ridges upstream
More of the same or overdue
Pushing bank heights and coming through
Uproarious waterfalls
