Heads Up!

Set out briskly
Cool dewy morning air greeting me gently
Preparing to choose which path to take
Right or left under leafy trees 
~ or ~ 
Straight forward onto the path sloping upwards into the park

Deep green between trees so tall beckons but....
Stop! 
Hush..........
Breathe as slowly as the moist breeze in leaf and pine
Auburn heads up with fuzzy antlers
Brown eyes watch cautiously then....
young heads dip down to pull and chew fresh green grass
seeming to ignore my forward slow step for a closer shot.

“Walking is my main method of relaxation. I don’t

go over my lines or try to solve the world’s 

problems, I just enjoy the scenery and the wildlife.”
