|
A line of clouds forms in the sky |
|
A hazy heat builds slowly |
|
The sun appears beyond the point |
|
A barren stretch awakens |
|
Cracked but seamless to the horizon |
|
Idle landscape, no distractions |
|
Dust and 'weeds drift in the distance |
|
An image flickers by |
|
I see the colors unfolding before me |
|
There's a presence in this unrelenting force |
|
Wind and water work in tandem |
|
Claim the living - unforgiving 'til the end |
|
Can't stop this natural course |
|
The moon will light the changing scenes |
|
A silent contrast to the efforts never seen |
|
Burrows fill as life retreats |
|
A constant battle to defeat the path serene |
|
Cactus valley |
|
The ground hardens worn but sharp |
|
Stifling heatwave focused |
|
Idle creatures scan dominions |
|
Balance failures lost |
|
I see the colors unfolding before me |
|
There's a presence in this unrelenting force |
|
Wind and water work in tandem |
|
Claim the living - unforgiving 'til the end |
|
Can't stop this natural course |
|
The moon will light the changing scenes |
|
A silent contrast to the efforts never seen |
|
Burrows fill as life retreats |
|
A constant battle to defeat the path serene |
|
Cactus valley |
