Desert Music Moonlit coyotes Sing sweet desert nights to rest With ancient love songs I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |

Hi, INclan. One of the most incredible nights that I ever spent was a sleep stop that I made on a desolate stretch of high desert plateau in southwestern Idaho. I was too tired to drive any further, so I pulled off onto a dirt road to rest. When I got out to stretch, I was greeted with the most inredible stretch of star-filled sky that I have ever seen, and the silence was puctuated only by those ancient love songs to Mother Nature. I was awe-struck. John I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |

Hi, EA. Thank you for saying so, but I often find that situations that move me to write, stir similar feelings in other people. Have a magical day! John xo I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |

Hi, TD. Thanks for saying so. It is very hard to squeeze a lot of "music" into such a little song. John xo I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |
