Short Poems About Deserts
#desert
in the desert
here
i saw
myself alone
in the
ocean
of sand,
my shoes
leaving
their
conversations,
my thoughts
running low,
and
in the end,
i lost
myself
out there,
to be
weathered,
my silence
got no
discussion
from
the sky,
the wind,
all those
little
creatures
thought
nothing
while
trespassing
over
my bones.

Rain fills the desert
Whose years of tightly held salt
Bloom to the surface
SALT FLOWERS
Whose years of tightly held salt
Bloom to the surface
SALT FLOWERS

Drought
each
breath
desiccating
dry
hot
dusty
whirlwinds
lift debris
swirling
upward to
where?
heaven? oz? kansas?
existential
thirst
yearning for
torrents
and
petrichor
white
puffs
form
on horizon
virgae
tease
moisture disappeared
before
reaching earth
leaving only
wind heat
lust and
mother
nature
laughing

I BASK WITH YOU
in arid zone
the family home
where you still
and distill
tales rattle and shake
minds swim and then bake

Desert Rose
Sandy, dry, desert,
Water gone, minerals form
Tan and rust roses.
Water gone, minerals form
Tan and rust roses.

Haiku #14 ...brevity...
from under tortured mountains
a stream seeping...
to shortly sink beneath the desert sands
a stream seeping...
to shortly sink beneath the desert sands

A Desert
God walks silently
Across our landscape
Of life.
Although unseen -
He leaves His indelible mark
On the parched desert sands
Of our hearts.
And in so doing -
Turns our desert
Into a springtime garden
Of love
Across our landscape
Of life.
Although unseen -
He leaves His indelible mark
On the parched desert sands
Of our hearts.
And in so doing -
Turns our desert
Into a springtime garden
Of love
