A nurse tree
can help raise
generations
of saguaros
only to die
long before
the cactus’.

Cries in the wind.
Blanks among trees.

Saguaro Sunset — Photo-Artistry by kenne
The sun sets
many times
before saguaros
grow arms
tracing the sun
on its rounds
time denying
the memory
a clear
visual shape.

Sometimes happiness is a blessing,
but, generally, it is a conquest.
Each day’s magic moment
helps us to change and sends us off
in search of our dreams.

Saguaro Cactus Are Being Destroyed By The Bighorn Fire 3 comments
Lower Ventana Canyon (02/20/15) — Photo-Artistry by kenne
The Bighorn Fire has been burning for days in Ventana Canyon.
I love hiking in this beautiful narrow canyon. The lower part of
this canyon contains a lot of desert plants, such as the saguaro cactus.
This Sonoran Desert signature cactus is not adaptive to fire.
Thousands have already been destroyed by the Bighorn Fire.
It may take hundreds of years to return, if at all. Sad, very sad.

Saguaros In Sabino Canyon — Photo-Artistry by kenne
“Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit,
and as vital to our lives as water and good bread.
A civilization which destroys what little remains of the wild,
the spare, the original, is cutting itself off from its origins
and betraying the principle of civilization itself.”

How about a little hug
And kiss, my dear?
Oh no, we have to be careful
not to get the coronavirus.

I found that while the camera does not express the soul,
perhaps a photograph can!”

Over the years, I have called groups of saguaros everything from a group, grove, and family.
Recently I was told that the correct term is “legion.” So, here you have it.
