Peek
The gnarled branches of an ironwood tree, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
Peek through a portal, and marvel.

Where
Shadows under an ironwood tree, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
Where are the doves this afternoon?

More Sunday Scribblings 2: “Where”
Far away from the ocean
A lone ironwood tree stands out against the sky, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
Far away from the ocean,
Surrounded by desert sands,
Swathed in the midday silence,
A stalwart tree still stands.
Gulls and plovers are absent,
But cougars still snarl and scream
Here in this land where oceans
Are only a fleeting dream.

What
An old ironwood tree, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
What caused this branch to break?
