Known for its colorful swirls of slickrock, Vermilion Cliffs National Monument is a sherbet-colored dream world
filled with fantastical rock formations like The Wave, White Pockets, and Buckskin Gulch.

The desert, the empty space, the drama.”

Old juniper tree

Face of the desert’s harshness

Life twisted and bent.

Find high ground

in northern Arizona,

panning the horizon

in a 360 degree view,

you will always see

her presence —

the peak above

the San Francisco Peaks.

San Fransico Peaks (1 of 1)_art blogSan Fransisco Peaks — Computer Painting by kenne

Driving south

near the edge

of the Navaho Nation,

snow-capped peaks

forming snow lines

in deep fissures —

I muse on

Bukowski:

“as the

spirit

wanes

the form appears.”

Capturing The Moment — Desert Dead Wood   2 comments

The Wave March 2012 - 2012-03-21 11-11-07 tree branch Art Poster Framed blog“Desert Dead Wood” — Image by kenne

“One by one her limbs succumb
to weight of vine and snow. 
Winds blow hard, she cannot bend
her roots let go, she tips, and then . . . 
her lumbering carcass comes to rest 
amongst the rocks and flowers
in the understory of her youth.
Prayerful chipmunks eulogize. 
Mulching worms and micro-organisms 
tenderize what’s left of her. 
Old molecules and rare earth ions 
seek asylum in the rain, penetrate the hairy roots, 
and rise up through the xylem of her progeny.”
