Solitary Visitation -- My Best Present

[Anonymous]

My Best Present
A day of solitude in the woods--so dear,
Listen so careful and you may hear,
The whistling of wings from an unannounced visit.
Is it a crow, a woodpecker, a turkey or is it?
Looking out the blind I see for myself
Scanning to the right and then to the left,
My eyes lock in on the red-tailed hawk!
A visit from a creature-so much in awe.
I watched as he consumed the meal of the day
An unfortunate wren or perhaps a jay.
I took from the woods a lasting impression
From my solitude, I give you this present.

keep them where I live. Still, if a raccon gets his hand in just right, he'll still snatch a little chicken right on through! <img src="/metal/html/frown.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt="">
