Desert Sands

Tepid sculpting winds,
Rogue waves of blown sands tally,
Infinite loose grains.

Raul. I am computer illiterate and don't know how to activate my soup mail..didn't even know I had it. So. I went into my profile and hit the button that said "do you want to receive soup mail" so I think I can receive it now. Trouble is..I don't know how to SEND a soup mail. If you send me one, perhaps I will discover how to answer. Thanks for your comments...Patricia

I like the rhythm the hard sounding consonants produce. Descriptive and creative lines captured my attention. Nice job! Karen

Lovely, Raul. I used top live inthe Chijuajua desert. (El Paso, Texas) Your description is perfect and extracts the same awsome feeling that one experiences when looking into the deep distant nothingness... except desert land. Great writting, friend. Lovingly, Dane

This is marvelous...usually with haikus one line will stand out more than the others...this piece all the lines are strong...good work.
