Might the ancient Antelope know
Or ask the smart Black Crows.
Windy echoes from long ago
or ghostly herds of deer that flow,
but stopped to graze and disappear
Kitanemukes of old revered.
Snowcapped mountains so near
and Joshua trees and cacti rare.
Where golden poppies fare and
mix with Blue Lupine to pair.
They said a rainbow led us here….
