COULD HE HAVE USED A PAINTBRUSH?
THOSE THOUGHTS RAN THROUGH MY MIND
AS I STOOD, OBSERVED THE BEAUTY
OF THIS LANDSCAPE, ONE OF A KIND
LOGIC TOLD ME PROBABLY NOT
AN IDEA THAT WAS TOTALLY ABSURD
I REMEMBERED WHAT I WAS TAUGHT
IT WAS CREATED BY HIS SPOKEN WORD
LAYERED IT WAS OF DIFFERENT HUES
TAN, CORAL, RED AND VIVID PINK
ENHANCED BY THE AFTERNOON SUNLIGHT
THE MAGNIFICENCE MADE ME THINK
WHY DID GOD MAKE IT THIS WAY?
DID HE KNOW IT WAS DESTINED A PARK?
WAS IT HIS INTENTIONS ALL ALONG?
WAS HE HAVING FUN, ON A LARK?
WHATEVER HE INTENDED IT TO BE
THE PAINTED DESERT IT HAS BECOME
A NATIONAL PARK SO FULL OF BEAUTY
THE PANORAMA WILL MAKE YOU NUMB
