Forest Haven

Forest shadows Hiding grave secrets Protecting her animals Seeing humans for who they are Keeping wise counsel Revealing nothing Sweeping secrets into her dead leaf piles Allowing dust to dust Sanctuary for some Refuge for all

I live in this forest, Ann. I was out there, tromping around, looking for snakes, finding all kinds of hidden delights this morning.

Yes I think animals do see humans for what we are - and flee! (except our pets who see us as treat dispensers!)

We are treat dispensers. Exactly write!
