Cemetery Iris

 



 

A dream-weaver

Covered her shade

Where salt brush bloom

In the space

Of her passage

 

Shuffling through the sand

She reached the Ghaf tree

Where

She left last night's dream

Unfinished

  

In that dream she wove

The cadence of white camel herds

Like a Nabati poem

She had learned

Many rains ago

 

And now the day’s shade

Covered the dream-weaver’s hands

Holding on without regret

Letting go without a sound

The echo unspoken words

 

Bounce in the desert
