Sara Kendrick Poet Rhyme

Heavy Dew

There's a heavy dew 'pon the ground
A gift from last nights rain
Then I saw the path whence was made
By an animal plain

Then I saw another path, too
They both came from the road
Then they converged in the front yard
Together was their mode

Two deer_a mother and her fawn
A youth of this years birth
Will it live to follow the path
By ancestors of earth   

Deer were here then wiped out by man
Lyme disease disappeared
Gone with deer whose ticks spread it round 
Now both are back uncleared

There's good_ bad in most everything
Now the garden fenced round
But the deer's beauty is enjoyed 
All the year most profound

Jack Horne August 19, 2012 at 8:59 AM lovely piece, my friend. There used to be a family of deer in the woods near us - just beautiful to see. I've heard of the disease caused by deer ticks over here

Len Gasun August 18, 2012 at 8:07 PM I'm extremely glad to read your poems this Sunday morning, Sara. They are awesome breakfast for me with coffee and biscuits. ( with all my smiles) This gives me a very fantastic sight. I love animals and I do take care of them. Way back home, we got mini-zoo and here in my rented apartment, got fish in mini-aquarium because they are the only animals allowed in here. lol. Thanks for sharing your poems again especially the latest ones. A blessed Sunday full of vigor to you and your family!
