Scrubbed
The Sonoran Desert in Southern Arizona is often scrubbed of tracks, both animal and human, by strong winds.
Wind, relentless wind,
keeps erasing my footprints
behind and before.

Sunset
A December sunset dances through the sky of the Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona.
As they cook supper,
no one in the homeless camp
admires the sunset.

Lullaby
Sunset in the Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona.
To the setting sun
a dove sings a lullaby
she has learned by heart.

Blue Monday: Smidgen of Blue
Clouds cover nearly all the sky in the Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona.
Only a smidgen of blue
Peeps through the clouds; wouldn’t you
Be pleased to see more?
That’s what we’re here for:
To honor the most brilliant hue!

Wind
Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona.
In the wilderness
wind keeps erasing the path
I plan to follow.

Presence
Daybreak in the Sonoran Desert, Yuma County, Arizona.
October morning—
an owl that no one can see
makes its presence known.

Owl
A great horned owl perches in a palo verde tree in the Sonoran Desert, Yuma County, Arizona.
One morning an owl in a tree
Appeared to be staring at me,
Or maybe he glared;
It’s not that I cared,
It’s just what owls do, don’t you see?
