You painted a colour picture here with just a few words Roy, I often see colourful skies and I never think of dust, but I expect the air is filled with pollution too, love Dolly x

A very well-written addition to the multi-author Renga book about the skies lighting up showing the desert sands from the south landing in your part of the world.

Hello Roy,

This is going to be a lovely Haiku poem addition to the chapter in the book Renga Multi-Author Book. Great title and artwork. Your words are cleverly written to describe the desert. There are many beautiful gems in the desert I'm sure. You aced this one. Well-done. Thanks. Happy writing. Another beautiful creation by God, the sand.

This is beautiful. You should do more of these short ones. Your last line is great. Is sounds like a Haiku. Kaleidoscopic dust is an excellent word, and you present great imagery of the dust gathering frosted light. Your illustration choice carries the imagery out. judi

Very beautiful presentation. The desert sands are swirling in the array of windy colours and presenting a sight to behold. It evokes a feeling of sand turned into jewelled specks. Nice.

What a wonderful addition to this collective book, my friend. Panoramic gems is a great satori line. I love the S sounds in the middle line, especially. Outstanding word economy, especially in the first and last lines.

Superb image and presentation!

Blessings,
rd
