I can tell you why nature brings me such delight
I can claim that it makes everything alright
But to prove this claim I feel I must demonstrate
Why I think this and what drives me to illustrate
I've been in deserts, forests and moutains
Picturesque places and poetic in essence
Let me paint you a picture of what I've seen
You will see how it entices me
This place I will describe within our boundaries
Is full of surprises and never lacks beauty
Canyons form with hundreds of falls
With Ancient drawings etched in ancient walls
Imagine if you will a tiny little mountain stream
Flowing for billions of years before man came
A source of life breathes and is inhaled by gravity
Mountain snow falls and begins its journey
When the warm weather comes and the snow begins to melt
The stream springs to life energy it is truly heartfelt
As it grows it acquires monumental force
Eroding the land with it nondiscretionary course
The path of least resistance it flows with ease
Finding its way to the its ultimate end.. the sea
As the stream expands to become a river of power
The earth opens up to welcome its super child
Maturing and getting stronger it cant be stopped
Cutting through the rock top to bottom it opts
It carves deep and it fits snugly like a glove
Depending on mountain snow and rain from above.
When all is said and done we arrive at the present
And even today these rivers do not relent
The grandest of all these tiny little streams
Carved the Grand Canyon and inspired people's dreams
