Han Min Ohn - Desert Flower

Under the intense heat of the sun it blooms
The chill of the night cannot cast a gloom
The strong wind has no impact on its radiant glow
Sandy ground cannot stop its constant grow.

Away from rain drops it unfortunately stands
Surviving in its own courageous trend
Nothing can stop its bright, colorful smile
However they may pose a threat so hostile.

Han Min Ohn
