desert sunshine blooms
lost in rock and windblown sand
thistle meets the sun

It's perfect, just perfect, both the picture and the verse.

Julian~
Such lovely inspirational thoughts.

Desert sun now sets
Passion flower's petals close
Holding warmth within


Thank you for sharing.

This was simply picture perfect poetry! The desert of course is my favorite place in the entire world, and you captured the beauty perfectly.
