This short poem is inspired by my first-ever trip to the Grand Canyon in March 2017.
I approach the Grand Canyon
For the first time
I must remember
This blessed event
And then I see it
Oh my God
OH MY GOD!
OH MY EVER LOVING GOD!!!
I gasp
I laugh
I cry
I am overcome
The colors
The majesty
The history
The beauty
Let me watch
Just for a moment
Or an eternity
In silence
