A drip, a drop,
Percolate, plop,
Pooling, puddling,
Flowing, flooding,
Torrent tearing,
Eroding, wearing,
Gully grinding,
Chasm winding,
Until is seen from outer space
A Grand Canyon on the planet’s face.
And so this thought:
It happened drop by drop.1

I think Josh Hansen should be renamed Joshiah Hamingway. It sounds much more worthy of the poetic side that has sprung forth.
Hey! A birthday poem for me! Thanks, Josh!
Cool! I was just at the Grand Canyon yesterday, and it was fun to read your poem about it.
