The sun cracked the earth
It left its mark
A land of dust
A world so stark
The air hangs heavy
It burns the sky
A place where rain forgets to cry
But whispers crawl through the canyon deep
A storm’s faint echo begins to creep
The sky
It trembles
The ground takes note
A single drop
The desert’s throat
Rain in Death Valley
It’s a fleeting ghost
A fragile blessing where life seems lost
It falls like secrets the earth can’t keep
Rain in Death Valley
It makes dust weep
Cracked soil drinks
But it’s never enough
The storm is fleeting
The land stays tough
Puddles form and vanish like a dream
A fleeting kiss from a forgotten stream
The rain writes poems on barren stone
Words that vanish once they’re known
The clouds move on
The sun returns
The valley sighs
The longing burns
Rain in Death Valley
It’s a fleeting ghost
A fragile blessing where life seems lost
It falls like secrets the earth can’t keep
Rain in Death Valley
It makes dust weep
