a solitary willow weeps
a babbling brook nearby
deer and fawn present a peaceful scene
the sun begins to glisten
on the dewy grass

field mice run through the meadow
rabbits play hide and seek
bluebirds perched above
on a white pine branch

sudden gunshot echoes
everyone scatters
first day of hunting season
