Ephedra

Desert hills of swirling sands,
crossing peaks across the lands,
soaking rivers groove cracked lines,
trees grow up at the top combines,
blowing winds heard through branches leaves,
speaking to us but no one believes,
deep caves howl from the same,
calling out their given name,
mountain rocks hold strong,
up there where nothing is wrong,
the sky glows near dark of orange set,
with the beauty of life we will never forget.
