morning bright, wispy clouds accenting

Life out, but not about

quiet, hushed, a pause in activity

silence almost oppressive

coats shaggy, shedding winter coats

antlers in bud, not yet showing age

two bucks sharing a glade

Morning sky lightly clouded

with sun behind, shining through

A warm, gentle breeze through

leafing trees, branches waving

concealing the many birds

The rocks are tall

mounds rising above

the fields and glades

commanding views unobstructed

Years and years ago

I fell in love

not with a person

with a skill

that few still have
