There May Be Deer

More about There May Be Deer

There may be deer today
crossing along the edge
of the forest, taking their
somewhat hesitant,
stealthy steps with
eyes and ears
wide open,
nibbling
amongst
the grasses,
so beautiful
to watch,
even when
they spot
you or me
then leap
and thud
away
to be
lost
from
sight,
with their
waving tails
of white.
