Reseña del libro "Desert Winds: A Collection of Poems about El Paso (full color edition)"
The poems in Desert Winds will take you through a poet's life in the city she has most loved. Written in an accessible style, these poems offer her reflections on this one-of-a-kind Texas town-from its local cemeteries, junkyard, Chopin Festival, border bridge to Juarez, old drive-in, swap meet, and mountains to its desert flora and fauna. El Paso geography and weather are unique to West Texas and unlike anything else in the state. The book also contains an extensive collection of haiku--delightful short reads.In addition, you will experience the unique style of El Paso artist Erika Martinez as she illustrates the poet's moods in the beautiful colors of her original work. No other poetry book on the market contains all of this! Some of the poems included are: "At the Bridge of the Americas," "El Paso Marathon," "Border News," "Swap Meet on Alameda Avenue," "Trail Rider," "At Mt. Carmel," " Desert Monsoon," "Morning Glories in the Desert," and "Taking Root."
