Desert Rose: Part 2

The Midnight Drama!

Faint rattles from underneath; 

she could hear..

Like a riverlet oozing out from its source..

The sand 

...has never felt so cold

Is it the sign of the Rose afterall..?

Under the rocks that she lay 

Is there the life she's awaited ?

Does the gravel beneath her bosom;

Hold the immortal petals of gold..?

In an anxious spur of tension 

and a spin of anxiety..

She swallows hope 

With a distinct gulp of positivity..

With not a moment to spare..

She takes out the sword..

She ravages through the boulders 

that was once her temporary sleeping spot..

Then she sees...

A very thin stream of water 

She is overjoyed..

Desert has its own language 

She could feel chatting with it 

in her silent voice..

The smell was divine 

Like perfume made from 

dissolved souls of beautiful men and women 

The scent of aromatic 'life' 

She couldn't resist the sniff 

As she touched the slightly wet sand bay..

On her knees, she creeped to follow the trail..

At the end of the rainbow..there is the pot of gold they say..

But...

Her heart sank ocean deep 

Almost abandoned her body and drifted away..

When she realised the source of her excitement 

was a little hole in her sheepskin water jacket...

Midnight desert's drama..

What a scene she has created..

There were no voices of applause!!'

Only silent trickle of sweat..

Magnificent write. Seems to be a struggle to thrive in a world that leaves one feeling drained. I don't know, it's early morning here and I'm grasping for words.:P

hahaha...I think this morning I am in the mood for poetry, especially with the Sun being so indecisive..
