His Dream Far Off

He kept seeing vicious black bears in his dreams

And throughout the night his body twist and tossed

In disharmony of victims fights and screams 

Spring was chilling with a hint of morning frost

And most days the black bears be hunting the streams

A campsite was attacked and four folks are lost

He saw the carnage wider wider up close

His heart racing with the screams as each one goes

Wow, you bring the reader in Connie to see and feel the terror in this Bear. Loved how you engaged the reader to feel and visualize through your words. Thanks for sharing...
