Desert Blooms

The cactus blooms
as the sun rises

Dirt devils twist
stirred up by wild mustangs

The last howl
of a band of coyotes
as they hide away

The shadows grow
colors of a bloom
A brush strokes
a desert canvas
his eyes see all

The blooms of dawn
Ancient lava once flowed
now petrified
in a purple majestic mountain

The pages tell
of desert blooms
amidst glorious sunrises

Dirt devils twist
in the sun
