A pomegranate sunset
Sashays its way
Across cinnamon shaded sands
Of the sleepy~eyed desert

Off in the distance
Playful little dirt~devils
Swirl and twirl haphazardly
As they engage in a game of tag

Magenta flowering cacti
Heave a big sigh of relief
Happily welcoming a reprieve
From the suns scorching rays

Small colorful critters
Venture out of hidey holes
Scurrying and slithering about
In search of evenings pot~luck

A gentle zephyr
Lollygags across the plain
Singing a soothing lullaby
In wait of the moons embracing luminance

A
Desert
Dusk
To
Remember

Pinkapalooza,
That was beautiful! I could still feel the heat off the sands! Your palate of desert colors was spot on. ~L

When you write a poem, Poet, you put your whole being into it. And the reader can see that in each and every line, Great composition!
