Sonoran Desert near Wellton, Arizona
 


sun-blasted seed pods
ten thousand tiny balloons
bobbing in the breeze

    I see these pods as giant butterfly chrysalides, bobbing and ready to reveal what’s inside.

    Let the winds blow them all around, just like it does the big balloons!

    Peace

    Wonder what happens when you blow on them? Looks like a peaceful scene.

    This is cool. the sky is hanging so low all the colours of the land are saturated instead of bleached. I like your balloon analogy. This is fun. The big bush on the right looks almost like it was painted there. I love the golds and rusts.

    If I’m not mistaken, they also do a wee bit of a rattling noise. I always love your visual and written presentations. Consistently stellar, I say.

    The desert is dry, but you have proved it isn’t dead!
