Oasis

Opelescent sky casting a pink glow

As I walk slowly through the hourglass of time

Somewhere in the middle of nowhere 

I find your footprints on the sand

Spring water flows across the desert of my heart



Inspired by andrea deitrich's five word acrostic contest
Not for contest but andrea tnks for the inspiration


Reposted cause I mistakely erased my previous acrostic
Tnks for all who commented in my previous post

Oh how lovely it is to find a gem hidden in your writes. So glad I have come across this poem. I await the spring water to flow as I walk this desert alone. A peach Charma : )

† 'The Desert Of My Heart.' I Wonder How Many Lives Can Say Such Within This Wayward World, Sweet Precious Charma Charmaine ? I Guess Only The Fortuned Can Sing And Whom Are The Fortuned And Are They Truly Fortuned ? While Her Children, The Most, Merely Fight For This Right To Rise Above These Tears Their Eyes Held Low; Either Starving From Something Or Even Worse Being Turned Into Heartless Animals ? May Your Beauty's Oasis Forever Flow Her Spring Waters In Joy As Love, Love, John
