Desert Day's End



Desert Day's End

The setting sun casts a warm glow
over snow-capped mountains
Illuminating delicate designs
between jagged peaks
sculpted over eons
by wind, water, ice

A kaleidoscope of swirling snowflakes
Deflected around my windshield
Frost-covered sagebrush
Frozen soil
The frigid air chills my cheeks

As I sped down the highway
heading home past endless vistas- -
the desert disappears into dark
