Desert Rose

To receive inspiration. A blessing and perfect gift. Rain that falls, on barren earth. Cools and refreshes, gives hope, of rebirth. It reaches deep, touches everything. Turns a puddle into a stream, a river, to shape the earth, and wash it clean. To be inspiration. Miracle and magical splendor. A flower that blooms. Despite, were it was sown. Standing strong and independent. In a wasteland, a beacon of greater truth, for all the world to see. How things are, but really, how they could be. In presence of Your wonder. I only, pray for rain. With hope, to one day be, to you, as you, are to me. Desert Rose! Beautiful inspiration, amazing serenity.

This is so well written! Beautiful and elegant and I love the desert and the rain you make it sound almost magical. I take it this is for your muse? What a gift and what a special person. "Cools and refreshes gives hope of rebirth"- you really make the reader (Me) want to go to this place you speak of and drink from the inspirational rain! Heck I'd bring jars for this kind of inspiration.

Thank you, and yes this was, is for a special person. I tried to show others that beauty of that special person in my(or anyone's)life can be found in the most baron of places,but still have such a great impact on another persons live.
