Beautiful Red Rock Canyon

There is nothing more beautiful
Than a canyon that is red
Glistening in the sunshine
Oh, so much that can be said

Green trees and shrubbery along
The red road as we drive
It just plain doesn’t matter
Where we go or when we arrive

I find it a pleasure and an honor
To spend time such as this
It warms my heart so much
Like a soft sweet lover’s kiss

The flowers I see are like frosting
To decorate the top of a cake
Delightful and fragrant they are
And perhaps a sky blue lake

Yes, a beautiful Red Rock Canyon
Is nature’s pure design
I’m so happy to have it in
This Red Rock world of mine!
