The Grand Canyon

Every landscape on earth poses an unlikelihood, a coming together diverse and ancient elements to form a single moment, a place that will soon be gone. The Grand Canyon is a very famous landmark, it’s in Arizona. It is many colors and very very very very very tall in fact it is more than 4000 feet to the bottom. It is very ancient .At the end of the Grand Canyon there is a river.  The forces that created the Grand Canyon also riddled much of the West with a big hole (called a chasm) and mountains and towers.  As the light of the sunset sets the light makes the Grand Canyon change colors. The earth is buckling, lifting but some places are just falling.  The rock layers on the Grand Canyon each represent some change in the world. The Grand Canyon first was an ocean then the water carved away the rocks and it became a big river. Then the canyon got deeper and it is set like that today. The Grand Canyon seems permanent with it’s gigantic cliffs and temples - buttes with the beauty of temple spires-that gathered together around each other, more everlasting, certainly, than are fast lives and even faster visits.  But permanence doesn’t describe or explain the Grand Canyon’s existence. Change does. The Grand canyon is older than 18.6 billion years old but still very important. The Grand Canyon has more then ten-billion three-thousand and 987 rocks on it.  It is very ancient and important, and in my opinion it’s really cool.
