desert rose

9 5 0
                                    


a single flower

in desert grows

a fragrant oasis

a desert rose


its roots search deep

for nature's breath

a single drop

separates life from death


though sun scorches

and storms prevail

the darkness freezes

but to no avail


the desert rose

fights to survive

a single flower

all that left alive
