Tabernas Desert

Dry and parched is this land
just dreaming of the rain
The dust swirls and spirals up
and no birds sing.
The hot wind with gentle hand
lifts the desert sand
Stirs the dust and tosses it
around and around again
Dry and thirsty is this land
where no birds sing.
But Oh! how beautiful you are
This desert of my dreams!
