Love poems and other poetry

	Arizona Sand grains, skin so parched sand grains fall away like nickels cheek bone on rock corpse in truck and scattered, outcast from meager cactus shadows thirteen angled bodies, not cold not pale as tin vault of lifeless gold Yes, that’s Hermano’s gulf blue shirt There, Tio’s boots salted by his sweat a lifetime’s tears too arid, now to make a living Let us cut our funeral planet in small pieces some with frosting, some without a hot wind rises from the desert Have Carlos run the lawn sprinkler and close the garden gate	More poems Spring poems Home Page
