Here is the challenge: use book titles to create small haiku-like poems. A challenge I couldn’t resist.

And so I began. Considering I had limited resources while staying in Arizona, I decided to do a trilogy of book spine poetry using the theme of “living the desert”. That way I could use several titles more than once.

Living the Desert Life, The First Month

You are here.
Chasing the light.
The desert year.

Living the Desert Life, The Second Month

While I was gone
chasing the light –
the desert year.
Foolsgold.

Living the Desert Life, The Third Month

Savor
The desert year,
Chasing the light.
