Abandoned Desert Ranch House — Images by kenne
This abandoned ranch house has a beautiful desert view off the La Milagrosa Canyon trail near the entrance to the canyon. One expects abandoned structures to have a story, but my brief research found none. Looks like a good opportunity for myth-building to share with hikers on the La Milagrosa Canyon trail.
The sign says, No Trespassing,
Placed just off the trail —
Who’s inside that house?
Only partially boarded up,
A face inside is watching us –
Who’s inside that house?
Faces on the trail look for answers,
Hoping to see movement –
Who’s inside that house?
The look of a mythical place,
Everything is waiting –
Who’s inside that house?
A breath of decay,
the darkness breathes –
Who’s inside that house?
Once a breath of desire,
now lost to the desert spirits –
Who’s inside that house?
Listen to the spirits
in this land of light –
Who’s inside that house?
Answers are in the canyon wind,
robbing nature of her myth –
Who’s inside that house?
She stands on the canyon rim,
Listen to her song in the wind –
now you know the answers.
