The sepia land slumbers gently Lulled by susurration of soughing wind Through fingered saguaro arms And salt cedar limbs by river bend Lune's pale smile bastes stone loaves Rising past irrigated lettuce field Beyond sleeping Dole produce trucks By day, dust and heat the yield The Ocean to Ocean Bridge blinks Confused by this dehydrated sea Where sand silvered splashes cliffs Known by none save Lune and me Alicat  |

How you manage to make something so hot and dry and arid, sound so lovely by simply describing it during nighttime hours is beyond me. Although, everything transforms into something magical when the moon comes out, eh?  Well done, m'friend. |

I'm envious of the view AND your writing! More than a look through your eyes, but a look INTO them as well. Beautiful. |

Darkness hides minor imperfections ~ I’ve known that for years, Darkness gives a new introspection ~ a calming of childish fears, I often walk the darkened ways Long preferred night to days When softer light plays. well done, I enjoyed your night view Gloom |
