My Lady Wisdom,
you breathe life into blossoms,
desert dust and stones.

    Dear Desert Dweller and Teacher,

    on an empty beach
    Lord Wisdom comes a-crashing
    through the solitude

    I wonder if my lord and your lady know one another?

    Yours,

    A Beach Dweller (and student)

    Grayish tan (or tannish gray?) is the color of the desert floor. So, the colorful cacti flower adds such needed color to the Sonoran and as such, a floral ruby of note! Nice!

    In that rare wisdom
    All things find their way in life
    Soft hard or crumbled

    I love cactus flowers. And your haiku goes so well to it.

    Couldn’t help to add another one… 🙂
