Excerpt from Sonnets Suggested by Paintings in the Collection of Eloisse Lee and Frederic Fairchild Sherman
The Grand Canyon
Gleaming with glory in its setting grand
The Canyon like a great fire-opal lies
Burning with the bright beauty of the skies -
A perfect jewel in the sunlit land.
And here an artist with a magic hand
Has made the vision of its wonder rise
Like some mirage in heaven for our eyes
To feast upon and try to understand.
This world is but the mighty diadem
God, as a crown, wears on his kingly brow,
And this great opal, burning like the sun,
What is it but that single perfect gem
Outshining all earth's jewels, flashing now
Among them, and of all the brightest one?
