Set In Stone

Petrology, geology, call it what you may Minerals of many are around us every day Igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic are the main Their seams grace our planet, they are her veins The next time you walk your streets, take a look around For many rocks and stones, are everywhere to be found Where would we be without them, many structures would never be here If it wasn't for many millions of years, and this beautiful earthly sphere
