Colorado.
Reading edition
Great and mighty mountains high, Piercing boldly through the sky; With snow patched ridges here and there, Solemn magnificance everywhere. How majestic there you stand, Your scenery so bold and grand, Rivulets foaming, through deep ravines, Throwing out green and silvery sheens. Higher and higher up you go, Where vegetation can never grow; The snow lies sleeping the year around, And deep glaciers on its bosom abound. Great and mighty mountains high, Piercing through the deep blue sky; For palette or brush what need have we; Look out of your window, a picture you’ll see.
