Montezuma's Well

A day trip north in early Arizona September does not result in changing leaves,
as it would elsewhere to harken the coming of fall. 
No.  
The Sonoran has a special fourth season all its own;
its secrets privy only to those who seek them.

In search of making peace with the present,
we inevitably head into the past and find ourselves today at Montezuma's Well.
Dark skies loom and beckon but sadly, 
this time,
do not fulfill.

Don't fret!
The creosote and cliff rose are blooming!
