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
