There It Sat

There it sat
Still and wonderful
Under a dark calm
Night

It sat there
Calm and unafraid
As I walked by the moons 
Bright

There it sat
That time of night
With the days warmth still so
Hot

It sat there
No need to worry
No harm is what I 
Brought

There it sat
As I walked around
The woods heading 
Nowhere

It sat there
The king of the woods
Even I move over for the 
bear
