Ancient city at Mesa Verde / cliff dwellings in the sun
Anasazi at Mesa Verde / wind-swept the dry canyon
Desert country at Mesa Verde / rock carvings in the sun
Kokopelli at Mesa Verde / snow-clad the high pinyon
.......
Under the shrines and sherds of clay
the dust of starlit nights
Over the pines and birds of prey
the wind of firelit heights
