Colorado, by J. Verne Laswell

The Cedar Mesa Project

They swirl and they sway

As they move on their way

The waters of the stream, Colorado.

Both by night and by day

They will wend their slow way

The beautiful stream, Colorado.

In ages long past

Her waters rolled fast

And still do at the head of the river.

With the dinosaurs gone

She still rolls along

And more sand she will ever deliver.

The Anasazi she knew

As intelligence grew

And they camped on the bank of the river.
