Poem: Rainbows - Twenty-Four of 30 #NaPoWriMo

In the desert, rain is an enigma;
Gift and curse, sky-dropped
Refreshment, swirling
Floods flash unexpected
In the safety of the cactus,
Bird huddles, thorn avoided
Rainbows pierce the early
Morning sunrise

Poem: Meteorite Life - Seven of 30 - NaPoWriMo

This momentary life
A flash of light falling
through the Universe
Star bright enough
To wish on, dreams
Pure enough to call
One's own, this life
A pebble in the River
Of Being, tossed
About by currents
Unexpected, tumbled
Smooth, so smooth
That by the end
This star turned stone
Will wash upon the Delta
Sands like glass
To hold up to the sun,
Casting rainbows upon
This momentary life
