Aloes of Life
Out in the desert,
where the sand is hot,
the heat of the sun,
is off the chart.
Nothing to shade you,
from the burning rays,
except the Aloe,
and a few rock caves.
Life is scarce,
not many can survive,
walking across,
to the other side.
Sometimes life,
is a daily chore,
wondering to our self,
can we take anymore.
Just like the desert,
with the sand so hot,
asking our self,
is this all I've got.
Then a rain comes,
bringing relief,
a ray of hope,
as the shade of a tree.
These are our friends,
shades in the sun,
our Aloes of life,
soothing our burn.
