Come and see the bright wildflowers

Amy Michelle Mosier

Come and see the bright wildflowers

Carpeting a sloping glen

And know that the desert endures!

 

Note how it's unrecognizable

Come March to the unaccustomed

When spring makes a spectacle

 

Except for some saguaros

That give the habitat away

Standing on the ledge they chose.

 

Poppies and chuparosa beam -

Even the palo verdes celebrate

By tossing up confetti.
