Desert in Bloom

Where have all the flowers gone?
Dr Abe V Rotor

                                                     Atacama Desert in Bloom, Peru (Internet)


Where have all the flowers gone?
Gone with the passing clouds in the sky,
Casting a dark shadow, then fly,
Leaving but a scorching sun.

Where have all the flowers gone?
Gone with every tear the heavens cry
On tired branches and empty ground
Where angels pass by.

Where have all the flowers gone?
Gone with the dryads now away.
Gone are the shower and bouquet
That make a beautiful day. ~

Rainclouds hover over an arid landscape ushering another bloom  similar to that in the 
upper photo.  Desert bloom is a rare phenomenon in the heart of a desert like the Sahara.
