Eagle Rock

Eagle Rock In the Canyon so Grand Wings spread On Hualapai land Sacred carve By natures flow This eagle flew And settled so People of the tall pine The Hualapai Dance to their ancestors Who witnessed it fly Blue green water people The Havasupai Sing to their ancestors With the eagle cry The Colorado Plateau In Arizona's fine lands Little wonder the word And that word was Grand No eagle would stand If no Colorado flow I pray in my lifetime That i can go " Thank you nature for this carve "

Like the song of a lovely bird, this poem was not only heard but felt as well. Great job, James!!!

There is a Rock Eagle in Georgia. I don't know if it is burial mound or not. I liked the poem. Sara
