Each helps the other
Bringing a balance to life
It is nature’s way.

Desert Globemallow — Image by kenne
Desert wildflowers in the spring
Bring joy to the eye
Responding to the mourning sun
Cresting over the mountain
Opening to a silent knowledge and
A spirit enlightened of itself
To which I contemplate the void.

Scorpionweed — Images by kenne
You can call me
Blue Phacelia,
Wild Heliotrope, or
Scorpionweed,
But don’t call me
Weed!

Come search the desert for wildflowers . . .
Morning bride and paperflower
Wishbone four o’clock
Desert lavender
And lupine,
Flaunting in their bowers;
Brittlebush with green flag half-mast high,
Succor to match the cotton clouds,
Poppies dotting the mountain slopes,
Scented creosote and lace pod mustard
Desert full of essences
Fit for fairy presences . . .
— my desert take on Ralph Waldo Emerson’s, Nature (fragments on nature)

Desert Wildflower Bouquet — Image by kenne
My bouquet
created nature’s way,
the makings of my fable
not for someone’s table.
I let my eye
with camera apply
the essence of spring
in this my thing.
