Olympus OM-2, Poetry

Dead and Dry

Dead and dry
death seems no where so
vital as in desertscapes
embracing the sky

dead branches reaching
for water’s vapour, out of reach
and far, far too late

Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park
Utah, United States of America, 1996
A photograph, and a couple of haiku in response to this week’s One Word Photo Challenge: dry.
