Dawn in the Desert

Great spaces on the breath of desert winds Silence and peace beyond our thought Gold clouds in an infinite stretch of blue Gold on the sands in the air and Dawn is Here! A faint glimmer of Light in the East Thenk suddenly up from the sand it self Golden end wonderful the Monarch of this world the Sun
