Grand Canyon
Tremendous vastness of Grand Canyon,
the earth drops away in escalation
reveling rims of canyon elevations.
River is slicing rocks
exposing chasm of gorges.
Chiseled by water
vertical walls of rocks
are descending into abysses.
Canyon rims of mountains chasm,
eroding and falling down
in sediment and loose rocks.
Sedimentary rock layers,
walls of rocks towering at the banks of the river
wonder of nature –
Earth abruptly is dropping away,
forming different life zones.
Raging river is washing away
rocks in colorful sediments.
Dotting, splashing and bouncing
is water cascading in ribbons
reflecting sun light
through the beauty of enchanting might.
In the chasm of valleys and gorges
only river and rocks,
water is cascading,
without a trail on the river banks,
bellow meandering
with sediments and minerals
Sand petrified
and sculpted by
chiseling river –
colorful sedimentary rocks,
containing iron, copper,
shining crystals and minerals.
Grand Canyon –
crowning mountains,
cathedrals of nature –
changing colors
with sun light passing -
astonishing, scenic wonder.
