In the Desert

In the desert

 Not in the midst of surplus
 Nor in chamber of comfort
 That thou my love examining
 But take thee me to the desert
 Upon her thirsty roasted sand
 There task thee me for liquor
 Like rain without cloud I fall;
 There thou shall know my love  
 When with smile I lift my queen 
 Where camels proceed no more.
