Desert Magic




sometimes nature
does a little showing off
no holds barred
really lets it all hang out



 and every once in a while
we find ourselves lucky enough
to be witness
to such a show



 there’s something about the desert…
in winter
before, during or after a storm
it’s one of those special shows



 how grateful i am
to have been part
of such a performance



(pure magic....)

  7. That looks like quite the storm! Beauty!

    I remember a few photos of mine from just before a storm on the coast. There is something so magical about the ocean against the darkness.

  10. Magic is the right word, Patty. We, too, experienced this kind of weather, colors and mood when we were in Saguaro National Park (where, I assume, your pics were taken) two winters ago. Yes, it is pure magic. I love this part of the desert.
