"Let the waterfall wash away your worries and cleanse your soul, as nature’s song plays a melody of serenity." -Unknown

During my visit to Polo Forest near Ahmedabad, I was greeted by a serene haven of nature’s wonders. The air was crisp, carrying with it the earthy fragrance of the forest. As I walked along the trails, the sunlight filtered through the dense canopy, creating dancing patterns of light and shade on the ground.

Polo Forest, located near Ahmedabad in Gujarat, India, is a picturesque region encompassing a dense forest, ancient ruins, and historical sites. It’s a popular destination for nature enthusiasts, history buffs, and those seeking a tranquil escape from the city.

The forest is known to have several small waterfalls that are part of its natural beauty. These waterfalls are usually more prominent during the monsoon season, when the region receives ample rainfall. The waterfalls add to the charm of the forest and provide a refreshing sight and sound for visitors who explore the area.

I love waterfalls, as they are a combination of beauty and wildness. This combination of beauty and wildness makes waterfalls both captivating and humbling, drawing people to admire their splendor while respecting the natural forces at play.

They are the beautiful example of nature on the other side; they can show us how powerful and destructive they are, just like our lives. It teaches me that I should embrace the uncertainty of life while enjoying its beauty.

“Waterfalls are exciting because they have power, they have rainbows, they have songs, and they have boldness and craziness!” – Mehmet Murat Ildan

This week’s prompt is,

"Have you seen a waterfall? Can you describe how it looks and sounds? Imagine standing near one. Write about what you see, how you feel, and any stories you think the waterfall might tell."
