The Desert of Dreams

Dream palms sprout, wetted by sweat. Like an eternal rainbow in the sand, Dubai entices the world. It’s not a mirage over the dunes, but a stunning truth of the spectacular opulence. The culture mixing in the palette of desert with tints and shades of all continents is sublime. Our forefathers with hopes flying like falcons voyaged across the vast risk on the Fat Boat. No land is worthless. Oil transformed the arid lives. Philanthropic passion abounds in the petrol poetry. This warm city is pregnant with promises. The expatriates with diverse dispositions and complexions are cozy in the emirate’s benevolent heart. First published in The Literary Hatchet.
