A Portal to a World Unknown

Vertical clouds descended, sunrays penetrated through
Golden hue over horizons hit mud, shale and sandstone
Red, brown, green, grey layers of geological magic grew
A giant rainbow of seven, a portal to a world unknown

Giant birds in the sky, mega snails swimming in water
Rivers are wide, waters are gushing, it’s canyon zone
Dinosaurs fall, extinction ensures, it’s a fossil hoarder
A giant rainbow of seven, a portal to a world unknown

Corn, squash, beans farms, wild animals and plants
Pit houses below and above, a wise society grown
War, pandemic, famine, extinction of those gallants
A giant rainbow of seven, a portal to a world unknown

Climate changed, rivers diverted, clouds vanished
Desert bloomed, civilizations left, a silent groan
Resilient flora and fauna, everything else banished
A giant rainbow of seven, a portal to a world unknown

Industrialization arrived with modern world rules
Metal ores, mining, quarrying in economic zone
New frontiers, trails, roads, rails, harvesting fuels
A giant rainbow of seven, a portal to a world unknown

Beauty admired, camping enjoyed, a protected land
Hiking, sightseeing, vista points, tourists’ cyclone
All the history, glory, stories were words on sand
A giant rainbow of seven, a portal to a world unknown
