Desert Flowers by Ms.AyeVee is a poem that sheds light on the importance and inspiration of the Southern Nevada desert. This piece highlights the resiliency of desert plants and by extension desert people. With 1000s of miles of desert lost each year to new energy initiatives, Ms.AyeVee reminds us that “the desert is full of flowers if you know where to look/nestled in tiny pockets of shade/existing in barren landscapes” and just like the miracle of a flower growing in the desert, we all can thrive and we all can grow.
