Desert Heat
by Grace H
(SoCal)
Spring but a moment
Welcome sweet lie of relief
The serpent aroused
Head raised, poised, ready-
Slithers past the breath of spring
Coils round, venom strike
Unrelenting heat
Until spent and satisfied
Hides again to wait
A Leaf
In the wind a leaf
Comes gently to the hard ground
I watch in silence
