Dry

Photograph taken by, Theresa F. Koch


Sand touches lightly across my face
This wind surely brings with it a storm
Ancients dance to vision’s delight
As this evening carries in it a song

Silent electric touch in the desert sky
Adds illusion to my eyes weary picture
Tomorrow the birds in the acacia trees
Will wake to water with a vengeance

God has listened to the ancients call again
Dusty rivers soon run then nourish land
Happy wildlife, plants and tired man live
Just perhaps another day in this dead desert

Dry land yet beautiful cactus sunrises
Seemingly they tease the human mind’s eye
But surely within the coyotes distant song
You’ll hear its been way, way too dry……..

Theresa, within the hollows of the mind, beauty abounds. Even in the most desolate of environs. Arid, sparse signs of life, 'til the God given, life of water nourishes. Beautiful photograph and enchanting poem .Jon Michael Willey

So very, very nice, achieves pairing the relaxing with the active in a sense. I can smell the air again in it traveling on my first trip down the Salt River Canyon to the desert floor to Phoenix, the very scent of dryness in words...you stirred the senses...Jerry

Lovely write, M'Lady. Dry it has been here in Eastern Virginia, and not for the best. Yet, the desert seems such an interesting place...one of those places to experience before my time is up...thanks for giving me a preview taste..
May the world always give you its softest gifts,

Theresa,

A most beautiful image and write, calling for the life giving refreshment of r a i n. We were there two years ago: I called it the burning season. Last year, we almost doubled our rainfall total: over 50 inches. Made up for it, and how! Well done.

(((HUGS))), love and Happy New Year,

Karla.
