I'm with you. A one on one encounter with an animal n nature is awesome. I remember one vacation with the kids when they were small and everyone was cranky, tired and argumentative. Suddenly we turn down a scenic road and see a fawn. We pulled over and just watched it. No one said a word. It was like magic. Great poem. Gretchen

This is well crafted, with a solid rhyme scheme and count. The idea of being one with nature, and God's creations came through clearly. You also did a good job, communicating the feeling of peace that could come at such a moment.

Comment from Alexandra Trovato
This is such a touching recollection of a beautiful moment in time. Two if God's Creatures, randomize eye to eye, safely, with no sense of dread. The deer probably was in awe of your peaceful encounter, as well. Well written!
Thank you for sharing this,
Alex :)

Hi, Janet. I hope your beautifully rhyming tale is based on a real incident - it feels like it is - because such events can be inspiring and even life-changing.
Impressive skills to wrangle the portrayed events into smooth meter and perfect abcb rhyming quatrains.

Thank you Steve for your encouraging review. This is based on a real incident. Northwest Pennsylvania has a large deer population. They were often in my garden but that was mostly does. The bucks were more elusive.

What a privilege for you Janet, of course we don't have deer, except some bred for their venison. This is supremely written in tertrametric stanzas and abandoning rhyming, a great success, well done, blessings Roy

Thank you for sharing this story/poem contest entry. I have only seen one twelve-point buck in my life and yes, they are majestic. This poem flows smoothly, and I could feel the emotion of the situation as I read. Good luck with the contest.
