M. L. Kiser Poet Tritina

I Speak Through My Soul To Yours

Precious little fawn;
How you touch my very soul;
Step not onto that deadly asphalt.

Wicked is the chemical asphalt;
Go back, into the woods, tiny fawn.
You are such a precious soul.

From my soul to your bright soul;
Humans have created that lethal asphalt;
Return and celebrate your family, little fawn.

I always speak to fawns with my soul; 
Their enemy, is the interstate’s asphalt.

Afolabi Muideen August 14, 2017 at 2:55 AM This is an excellent post. Thanks for bringing attention to asphalt M. L. Kiser August 16, 2017 at 9:02 AM Thank you for reading and commenting.

Indiana Shaw August 12, 2017 at 9:35 AM We built the asphalt roads to our world - Without little consequence of others - Little do we know each fawn killed by cars - Are our own spiritual sister's or brother's - Indiana x x x M. L. Kiser August 16, 2017 at 9:03 AM I realize that we can't know everything and that much of our endeavors do harm. Sadly, we sometimes need to learn that fact afterwards. Glad that you stopped by to read and comment and thanks so much, Indiana.

Connie Marcum Wong August 12, 2017 at 1:58 AM Every soul is precious and even though we don't speak the same language I think mentally they can feel when we have compassion for them. This is beautiful M. L.: )

Jan Allison August 10, 2017 at 4:49 AM I'm pleased we have no deer roaming free I'd hate to see one out on our roads as many of them are de restricted and the poor animal would stand no chance. A very touching poem ML:-) hugs jan xx M. L. Kiser August 11, 2017 at 8:04 PM Yes, I hate to see that, as well and I always take precautions when I see them, but sometimes they do run out in front of vehicles and other people don't necessarily pull off or stop for them. Glad you stopped by again and thanks.
