Capturing The Moment — Spring Arranges My Window   5 comments

These saguaro buds are popping out all over.

The green-stick tree (Palo Verde) at providing a brilliant yellow contrast to the Sonoran Desert. 

These Ocotillo blossoms seem to be weighing-down the branch. — Images by kenne

These images are examples of how spring arranges my window of the desert — as arranged by an E. E. Cummins abstract hand:

Spring is like a perhaps hand

Spring is like a perhaps hand
(which comes carefully
out of Nowhere) arranging
a window, into which people look (while
people stare
arranging and changing placing
carefully there a strange
thing and a known thing here) and

changing everything carefully

spring is like a perhaps
hand in a window
(carefully to
and from moving New and
Old things,while
people stare carefully
moving a perhaps
fraction of flower here placing
an inch of air there) and

without breaking anything.
