Life Force
The life force is patient here.
Desert vegetation,
oftentimes appearing to have
succumbed
to a harsh and unforgiving environment, lies dormant,
anxiously awaiting the rainfall and mild weather that will trigger
its growth, painting a
profusion of colors.
At the edges of daylight and under clear night stars is a fascinating multitude
of generally unfamiliar wildlife.
Waiting out daytime heat, these animals
run,
hop,
crawl,
slither, and
burrow
in the slow rhythm of desert life. Under the bright sun and blue sky, when
the
night creatures
have long since sought shelter,
bighorn sheep
and
golden eagles
add an air of unfettered majesty to this land. |
