Get me a sunset. Send it parcel post.
Wrap it with a little bit of sky,
throw in some desiccated desert shrubs,
some dunes. I want to feel that I am lost
among the strings that tie the package up:
I want some leaning posts, a sagging fence
to cross; and scents, invisible and frail,
like creosote or sage, or yucca spikes.
If possible, include coyote howls,
and if the shuddering sun is not too tense,
I’d also like to hear the wings of owls.
Please do that for me. I will check the mail.

Burned by the sun

Great combo. All the senses are triggered. and what a photo! Here the photo and words worked perfectly together (on the imagination). More yes?

beautiful!

I loved it, Foehn. The picture is lovely as well.

I have a nit-pick though. The word "little" ...is it really needed? read it without that word.

my favorite lines are--

if the shuddering sun is not too tense,

I’d also like to hear the wings of owls.

That is beyond beautiful. Loved it, thanks for posting!
