Deserted desert.

Desert orange scattered,
drifting up, dancing
with gravestones.

Souls, centuries ago laid to rest
human life walking through,
respecting the passed, no more.

A tumble weed bounces on by.

Only the stone today,
souls long gone
with words that stay
on a slab,
still very much alive.

Um I don't know speak the truth lol :)

  • hi

    I love your screen name. I also like the picture poems that you have done. MM told me to look at your poetry, he said you posted alot of contest stuff and are very productive in your work. Which shows alot. He also said you have a huge heart and will almost always every time leave a comment for somebody after reading their poetry, which I think is great b/c that's one of the many reasons people are here. Well enough about that. I liked the poem alot, i enjoy landscapes and I thought you did this one justice. I liked the scenery and the historic look and feel the poem and picture evoke together.
