The Desert Welcome

The desert welcomed my heart. Dry air spread wide open warmth. Cascading cliffs lay in the distance. The sky was filled with a fiery sunset. I had no specific destination. I only had a brief place to stay. It was time for change, again. Somehow, I would find my way. Then, I saw the mountains I knew. A Cross sat on top of the boulders. I watched the palms sway as I prayed. I knew everything would be okay. Heidi Sands 4/3/17

Thanks Edward. There is a nice spot in the desert mountains of CA where there is a cross at the top. :)
