Desert Bloom

Desert plumes, miles away
Set in the open sand
Burning out, cursing the sun
Wondering, counting the days
When the lifeless desert comes into bloom
Catch a fading moment in the shade
Here for the day
Gone tomorrow, after the rain
Clearing the plumes away
Burning up, out in the sun
Wondering, counting the days
When the lifeless desert comes into bloom
Catch a fading moment in the shade
Here for the day
Let the lifeless desert come into bloom
Spare a precious moment in the shade
Gone in a day
