Infinite Sands
(Excerpt from my new book, "Painted Poems (Portraits of New Mexico)"
Oh, speak to me, dear sands of desert,
Infinity shifting ‘neath my feet
Oh, speak to me, you cragged mesas,
Whose abundant, eternal soul’s replete
With histories and mysteries –
You who are my sisters, please
Reveal to me your timeless knowledge,
The things that aren’t taught in college
That you and I, dear mesas, sands
Are cupped forever in eternal hands
That gently hold us all together –
We all are one, right now, forever
Oh, speak to me, dear sands of desert,
Infinity shifting ‘neath my feet
Oh, speak to me, you cragged mesas,
Whose abundant, eternal soul’s replete
With histories and mysteries –
You who are my sisters, please
Reveal to me your timeless knowledge,
The things that aren’t taught in college
That you and I, dear mesas, sands
Are cupped forever in eternal hands
That gently hold us all together –
We all are one, right now, forever
