Lost Kodak Moment

.

           a snap of a twig

           made by my careless footstep

           white tailed doe takes flight






For Rick's "Haiku You" contest

But, the vision of its passing reminds their are better pictures to be taken on a future day. Snapping a picture of a doe in retreat may another day yield a picture of a doe advancing. The two pictures then may become come one. A masterpiece.
