The exercise:

Today's starter is: desert rose.

This has nothing to do with the Sting song, but I thought I'd link it anyway since I like it a lot.

Mine:

Sand.
In every direction...
Sand.
And I can do nothing but
Stand.
And look and think while here I
Stand.
But wait - is that a purple...
Rose?
Surely I must dream of that
Rose.
A mere mirage, my poor brain
Knows.
Yet its scent still reaches my
Nose.
