Mighty Saguaro
Mighty saguaro!
Defender of calm—
woodpecker’s beat and coyote’s song.
Giant saguaro!
Sixty feet tall—
proud desert hero, protector of all.
Fearless saguaro!
Silent, yet strong—
arms poised for action should something go wrong.
Noble saguaro!
Imposing you stand—
benevolent king throughout the land.
