Fly away to the valley of the sun
Where lovers explore and hearts are won
Architecture wonders carved out of rock
Orange and teal hues that shock
Sensory overload without a doubt
Makes one stand up and shout

Solitude and beauty hides in the desert
Waiting for those who remain alert
To nature’s wonders cut from mesa
While we partake of food and cerveza
Jackrabbits greet visitors with delight
Ears perked and flat tummies tis a sight

Orange rock juts out for uninterrupted miles
Brings awe to city folk, now less hostile
Life’s rhythms take on new meaning
Spiritual awakening is in the seeing
Sunsets amaze and hold our breath
A desert wonderland until our death

Magnificent homes of red tile and stone
Multilevel views taken alone
To enjoy a city clean and decent
Just an hour drive east of Phoenix
Condos, golf, eateries and trails
Welcome visitors on such a grand scale

So fly to the cleanest city in our nation
Where hope abounds in God’s creation
Talk to the locals and understand why
Folks stay in this paradise where the climate is dry
A friendly people in the valley of the sun
Spellbound by nature where all live as one
