Wildflowers in the desert sunshine
Emerging in harsh conditions
Shining with an inner light
Colorful expressions
Jewels in the sand
Ephemeral
Presences
Fleeting

Colorful expressions, indeed! Your lens captured these Jewels in the sand. Thank you for your beautiful poem and colorful wildflowers.
Thanks and you're welcome, Amy!
Beautiful flowers! Wonderful nonet. Well done.
Thank you, John!
These are so pretty. I don't think we've ever visited this area of ORegon. I'll need to look it up.
Thanks! A lot of the desert flowers bloom in May, if you ever get a chance to visit. 🙂
Ephemeral indeed Siobhan - the desert demands its due and only the strongest survive. Beautiful little blushes of color and verse
Yes, so true, Tina. Thanks!
So beautiful and hopeful, Siobhan!
Thank you, Patti!
