Poem “The Sahara” by David Elliott

Book cover for In the Desert by David Elliott, illustrated by Gordy Wright

Today’s #NationalPoetryMonth pick: “The Sahara” by David Elliott from IN THE DESERT, illustrated by @gordywright.bsky.social 🦂

A beautiful example of how poetry & vivid art can bring an ecosystem to life — great for classrooms exploring nature, geography, or imagery in verse.

A spring and Easter-themed illustration, depicting a nature scene with a green field and trees. There is an Easter bunny in the right foreground carrying a basket full of painted eggs, in front of a line of spring flowers and foliage. On the left, there is a pond with mum & baby ducklings. There is a cottage in the distance behind the bunny, and the sky is clear blue with several white clouds.
