The Moment

Crunch, Crunch.
Leaves heralding
Brown forms ghosting through oaks.
Pulse quickens, hands sweat, try to breathe.
Showtime.

it's takes a turn of events at the ending. I thought that the narrator was being chased in the woods at first. So it makes me think about what is actually happening which is good for a writer because it makes the reader think about your writing. So great job!

Thanks for the feedback. I wrote most of these poems this Fall trying to capture the sights, sounds and feelings that are precious to me as a avid outdoorsman.
