A Journey Only We Know About

For One Single Impression Prompt: Desert or Deserted.


1.Cactus I walked many miles,
My journey told in the sand
-tomorrow, the rain.

2.When I was alone,
xx In the bleakest deep despair
xxx-then You were still there.

These are both incredibly beautiful, each in its own way. I think the first is my favorite, but only by a grain of sand or two.

Ah,the stories written in sand. If only we could know someone would read them before the rain. Thanks, Edward.

I really like how you wrote two very different poems based on just one word. I think I like the first one more than the second but then I reread the second and can't decide. Sand and loneliness: the hoped-for rain and company. Nice.

I love both. Both are so positive. I saw bleakness, you saw beauty.
