Saguaro cactus blossoms, Yuma Conservation Garden, Yuma, Arizona
 


Saguaro flowers glowing
Against the bright blue sky
Fill me with greatest pleasure,
And here’s the reason why:
 
I think there’s nothing finer
Than seeing a white bloom
Juxtaposed against the sky
To chase away my gloom.

    One could not be gloomy when those magnificent cactus give out those gorgeous flowers. When the hummingbirds come to the flowers it is like getting a cherry on top of a sundae.

    My mother had a Christmas cactus which had been her grandmother’s. Starts from this plant now thrive in the homes of mother’s grandchildren and great grandchildren. A lovely tradition for a desert flower. Beautiful poem.
