 A lone camel camouflaged in desert sands,

and a lone tree that casts no shadow.
The sand sometimes can be heard singing a strange melody
that can be felt but cannot be heard.
The naked eye sees the naked sky
that wears no clouds this day of summer.
Everything is standing in a frozen stance
though there no sign of winter to speak of.
The melody that the desert hums and the wind with the sand carries far
will reach you in your sleep and you will recall
someone who was there long ago writing your name in the sand.
Sushama Karnik.
The picture is the art-work of my MeWe friend Lise Wal.
