Arizona
Arizona
Warm dusty wind whistled past
Cactus pointy sharp green
Braced against the wind
Bumpy long straight roads
Disappearing into the horizon
Hot stuffy car ride
Slumped against the door
Wondering if we were ever going to get there
The never ending drive
Rising up out of the desert sun
Stone monuments to people
Light reflecting off windows
Increasing rumbles from engines
Palm trees waving against the concrete backdrop
Cool gray and blue mountains
Visible in the distance
Steps and slides glimpsed
Like a mirage first seen
Shiny clear water
Relief from the heat
