New Tales of the Gobi Desert
Beacon Hill School, Christopher McCoy, Poetry: Group 2
Swirling sandstorms rolling across the ground,
Tribal tents scattered on the steppes,
Two-humped Bactrian Camels trudge thirstily for water, amongst the solid ground,
The Gobi Desert.
Sometimes freezing, sometimes sweltering hot, this desert has a variety of weathers.
With cold Russia to the North, and warm China to the South.
Where mighty Genkis Khan once stood, is now barren, vast, dry desert.
Most of Mongolia covered by this desert; it is one of the biggest in the world.
The Mighty Gobi Desert.
