Land of Enchantment

Enchantment

Only begins to describe the

Resounding

Beauty of this land.

Landscapes resemble

Shape shifters

Morphing from a glorious prairie

To a sandy desert in an instant where tumble weeds

Frolic

Into gardens of yucca, cholla, and prickly pears

For miles and miles to the eye’s delight.

Lakes and rivers fulfill the role of

Mirrors

To reflect the incredible mountain-scapes

Encompassing

This vast spread of magnificence.

The Rio Grande

Concurrently

Displays itself in many cities, so one doesn’t forget its

Splendor

To the sustenance of the land.

The hot springs of Truth or Consequences

Engulfs

Its partakers with the natural warmth

And minerals to sufficiently sooth the soul.

Basalt lava flow

Blankets

The Valley of Fire in a never-ending sea

Of the midnight hue of the witching hour visibly

Contrasting

The cascading rocks against the shrubbery

With the native desert plants.

The Land of Enchantment

Summons

All who visit to repeatedly return

To the unexpected charm of the

Southwest.
