I watched a family of four deer
wander through the woods
behind my parents’ house today.
What a gorgeous sight.
This sweet fawn and I
locked eyes,
studying each other closely.
Confident and graceful,
she’d nibble on a branch
or look around for her parents,
then turn her attention again to me.
When I left the house and got in my car,
there she was,
still watching me quietly
from her spot in the woods.
So, who was the true spectator…
me or her?
P.S.
I couldn’t resist capturing the sight
of a fresh layer of snow
on the brand new display
of lawn mowers at Home Depot.
