Notes About The Poem

Forest Sketch

soft-eyed doe
encircled in mist
mesmerized
I stop-stare
you leap away-disappear
my soul diminished

As a fan of deer, I find this poem to be a light on my heart. Deer eat trees and fiber rich weeds. They only fight when threatened. Thank you for this beautiful poem.

Ahh!! I like to watch them when I see them in their natural settings like the diminishing forest's edge. In my yard, not so much but they only come in our yard at night though, so I don't see them just what they have destroyed. I don't see any of it much anymore because I am not able to get out there much. I enjoyed reading this one today. Sara K
