Once Forgotten, Now Remembered

The forgotten river, now remembered.
The once calm tides, 
In a perfect symphony
Now crash with fury.
In a battle with the rocks,
The blooming flowers that once stood in full bloom,
Now lay in broken ruins,
Trampled by humans.

Sometimes the human race,
Should just leave things in peace.

    This is such a beautiful and descriptive piece! I have probably read the first sentence maybe... 10 times now?! I love the whole thing! Nice work!
