Dating apps
From the cold phone
Snaps the attention
Of a lost soul
Looking for connection
A real life
Ressurection
But instead just brings
More of the same
Without any delay
Storm brew
From sea to shining sea
A fallen snowflake
Soon will be
Joined with many others
Across the country
From Texas to North Dakota
New York to New Mexico
Here comes a late
Spring snow
From the onset of the morning
Takes the tee time of the day
From the wildest animals
Walking through the paths
And taking in the smell of the orange leaf
To stay for the day
Pleasure for the day
For another evening
The grass perfectly manicured
For the ball to roll through
Take the round for a new
Day
The saguaro
Rises high above my feet
Taking me away from the desert
Life
Such luscious curves
In a resilient growth
Of life
That inspires even the fallen
To rise again
To see what can come
From another day
Another sunrise
As the saguaro
Rises from the air
So do we
Over the mountain mist
That fills the cactus with water to live
The sun rises
Lazy in the sky
Held up by clouds
Bleak yet wired in full strength
To life the life force into the day
From the mountain tops a peak
Of sun begins the day
Along the roads
The desert life arrives
In the morning gray
In the early of the day
The desert awakes slowly
To a subtle desert gray
Upon the cactus in bloom
In the early months
5 before June
To take up the winds
In a warming sunrise
Behind the clouds
Not for the eyes
These grays of life
Bring about the abundance of sun
That comes with day
Well after it has begun
Scottsdale sun
Running from the cold
Up North where the wind blows
Harsh upon the skin
To take in the recovery
Of light and fusion
Into my own brain
To sort the confusion
A summer delegation
Scottsdale constitution of resolve
Bitter from the memories of the past
In the words of another
To be away
And home
Is the hope
Under the Scottsdale Sun
To the Camelback Mountains
The praying monk
And the light from the shimmering sun
Over the land of Phoenix
Upon the light set mood of winter
As the palms sway
Embracing for another day
For summer is far at this point
In the easy flow of winter
The Camelback home of the west
In the wildlife of life
Is where you can find me
Upon the isles of the mountains
Where the wind curves through
The cactus and flowers
To take up church upon the world at large
Ripping through the valley
And into the heart of the souls
Who walk the streets
Alone
The sunshine down on the cactus flower
From the morning mist
To the afternoon bath of sunshine and warmth
Take each day
Each moment
As tender as the cactus flower
From very little comes the depth of beauty and life
To inspire the world around
And believe that even in the hardships of life
Flowers can bloom
From the side of the street
To the mountain side
The saguaro reaches delicately out to the sun
For life
For growth
But with the tender life force
Comes hollowed out worlds
That lead to the saguaro blues
The sky down to the ground
As the cactus is laid bare
In a world so ready to move on
But the cactus reminds us that
Even in the midst of the desert
Life can spring forth abundantly
For all of us to see and be inspired to
Live fully
The quiet night of cold winds
To the bright day of warmth
Bringing just enough heat to warm the skin
The ridge runs through the mountains
Into the moonlight and sun beams
To the cactus reaching full bright daylight
With creatures small and timid
To the desert ridge of spring
Comes the fullness of summer sun
