SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO
by April Halprin Wayland
up dusty red Canyon Road
in and out of art galleries
ducking out of the heat
into cool rooms filled with
pueblo paintings,
buffalo sculptures,
wrought iron Indians,
out again into the clear day
to see surprising piles of clouds,
melting, moving
mounds of white ice cream
look what I have found
out here
in this gallery.
