SAHARA by GERVE BARONTI

First Line: THOU, BRAZEN, GLITTERING WANTON OF THE WORLD
Last Line: THOU PARCHED DEFIANT MYSTERIOUS BEAUTY, SAHARA!
Subject(s): SAHARA DESERT;

Thou brazen, glittering wanton of the world,
Flinging at length thy nude sensuous body
Under the full white staring glare of the sun, Thy Paramour:
Thou disdainest the green garment of grass or plant,
Thou refusest to drink of the cool singing streams,
Thou parched defiant mysterious beauty, Sahara!
