Forgotten Poem
I know that I mentioned creating a poem of the Grand Canyon on my vacation and posting it on my blog. Why didn't I do this?! This is what I have so far.

Skys of flames in the evenings,
Bright blue hues in afternoons,
Powdery snow lightly blankets
The trampeled earth.
Colors of mahogany,
And a shadowy teal,
Marbel pillars,
And rocky pyramids,
Clawfooted giant wardrobes,
And stone basins.
Stretching majestically to the horizon,
The breathsnatching Grand Canyon,
Lays before me,
A ruler.
Nobody neglects this phenomenol sight,
Yet no words of mine really describe the beauty seen by my appreciative eye.
