GRAND CANYON
One of seven world wonders
Transcended beauty, our heart plunders
Powerful inspiring landscape location
Overwhelms and thrills our sensations
A great chasm carved by Colorado River
Cutting rocks of Colorado plateau, over thousands of years
An awe inspiring view one mile in depth
Eighteen times in width, two hundred and seventy seven in length
For Archeologists a site thousands of years old
For Geologists, the visible cross section nowhere else on globe
For foresters three different communities
For hydrologists, Colorado River and streams plenty.
Climb eighty five steps of watch tower
An inspiring omnidirectional viewer
Navajo and Lipan points on Southwest thrills
Geological stories of rocks they tell.
Moran point presents Colorado River sight
Grand view point tales of forest fire fright
Watch the red and browns of cliffs from skies
And in contrast to desert sand, blue lakes.
Hualapai Indians, natives of west
Life styles and value of mother Earth best
Hualapai tribe music and dance in traditional style
Watch their footsteps so agile.
