Out in the desert, dry and wide, There’s a place where people hide. No rules, no rent, no locked-up gates, Just open skies and empty plates. Homes are built from scraps and sand, Painted bright by careful hand. Words of crime and dreams untold, On walls that crack from heat and cold. Some come to stay, some come to go, Some criminals just want...

In the land of golden sunshine, where the waves do crash, There lies a tranquil beauty, a Californian marsh. Where waters shimmer softly, reflecting skies so blue, A haven for the creatures, and a sanctuary too. The marshland breathes with life, a chorus of birdsong, As egrets gracefully wade, camly gliding along. Their wingspan wide and elegant, in search of...

Watching California fall to fire Watching the smoke grow ever higher People losing all Watching as their homes fall Tears in their eyes Reflection of the burning skies Breaks my heart Communities torn apart Voices filled with pain Praying for rain But it won't erase this stain So proud to see How truly strong one can be They stand together to build their strength Together they will...

Ashes, Ashes, Flames all around And remnants of our lives are scattered Upon the crackling, smoking ground. Our hopes and dreams buried in the rumble, Lost are the things that we thought measured our lives. Nothing left but our memories. It cuts like a knife. We trusted our treasure, our futures, our dreams Into the hands of a criminal who is...

Now homeless, realizing life is not just an insignificant game! Each passionate kiss might disappear into a world deepest of sorrows. She kept her hopes alive, in a fourteen carat, blessed, lit frame, It was...

Delicate dainty flowers with crisp petals of peach Climbed off of their vines onto the backs of the oranges The rest of the garden grew silent, watching the show What would happen next? Would there be frost? Signaling the prophecy of the California orange faerie. She only comes to the groves every twenty-second year. Most people lose track before she arrives. Is...
