A Desert Song

A desert song 



             One day in Arizona 
               Trod a girl named Fiona
              Her flock she led towards a pool
              to find a drink sublime and cool 
               
               
              All day she walked with head held high
              Beneath the big blue sky
               The ray's of the sun beat
                 But she did not retreat 


               On and on she did escort 
                through the desert hot
                 And down the creek they went
                Never forgetting their intent 
                 
                 But alas they soon befell
                 What fate would call a spell
                  For reasons not being plain
                   They never returned again
