Primal Instincts

An Autumn wind blew an acorn from the paws of a squirrel right into the pond without so much as a twirl Then the wind knocked down a sapling that had recently sprouted cackling madly as a witch at the foliage it routed… Heralding a long bitter winter Madame Wind howled as fierce as a wolf ripped to shreds by a bear ~ primal instincts ravaging its lair

I loved how you told the story of Madame Wind...she was heartless, almost cruel snatching an acorn from a little squirrel's paw. The winds here will soon turn cold like you said and Madame Wind's howls will be fierce and bitterly cold. I liked the title, too....perfect! enjoy your evening, Sara
