Cactus - The uncrowned king of the desert


Head held high, standing alone and proudly,
On the  sandy, dry landscape, it was
Seemingly untouched by nature’s fury
Silently braving the storms across.

Where does it garner the strength to live and thrive
When others in its place would perish
To manage alone it does contrive
The rare rains which it does cherish

Facing the wicked world with a thorny exterior
Lacking both friends and foe,
Known the world over as a proud survivor
The uncrowned king of the desert show.
