Home of the Blue Lizard, Desert Fox and A Host of Other Desert Dwellers
The desert is quiet
Thin blue lizards
Sit on rocks
Blend into their world
When it rains
Longing does not yield
Its grip on the heart
All is quiet except
For the rhythmic rain drops
Falling on the roof
Like the ticking of the clock
Later… when the sky is brilliant
Weather dry
Tail dusty
You will wonder about
The dark mood that colored
Your world
The Rio Grand
Still sleeping in its bed
A tune lilting on the wind
Ripples the surface
Speckled trout
Swim below
