"Poem for Rock cycle"

Ooh I am just a rock, just a rock.

Whose ancestors came from volcano,

Where my family starts with magma and ends magma,  

My family nomads,

Volcano shaked,

Magma shaked which changed to lava,

Ooh i am just a rock, just a rock.

Changing caused ancestors to form to igneous rock,

Fast wind broke the rocks into sediments,

After erosion, burial and compaction, turns to sedimentary rock,

After 100 years of pressure and chemical actions, turned to metamorphic rock,

Metamorphic rock heated which melted

And returned home underground,

Expanding my family throughout the world

I am just a rock..
