Imprompt fall

Pipiwai Trail Hike, Maui

Through the eerie bamboo forest
with its strange knocking sound,
past the thick spreading banyan tree
and the Makahiku overlook,
the four hundred foot tall
majestic Waimoku Falls
commands oohs and ahhs,
recharging your spirit
dimming any aches and pains
from the two hour uphill hike.

It would take more than that to get me moving uphill for two hours. Betting the climb itself was pretty spectacular.

Great take on the prompt.

I was in Maui a few years back - for a week. Didn't go on any two hour tours but we did have a great time. Passed on the Seven Sisters Falls when we read they were a man made attraction. But we did drive up to the look out at Mt. Haleakala.
