Why a haiku post
Challenges keep the mind sharp
Hope you enjoy it
Lajitas Mesa
Looming over our campsite
Middle of nowhere

Isolated land
Chihuahuan desert skies gleam
Roadrunners flash by

Desert to mountains
The parks of Big Bend beckon
Rio Grande flows




Dividing countries
Muddy and meandering
Lifeblood of the parks



Mexican people*
Across the winding river
Worlds away from me

Towering canyon**
Skipping rocks along the trail
Sun sets behind us






Lajitas bike trails
Rolling across the hot sand
Cactus-free riding



Terlingua Ghost Town
Populated by locals
Spelling challenged folks

Lajitas resort
Oasis in the desert

Brilliant night sky scene
Unadulterated stars
Simple joys are best
