My Wildlife World

No early morning reverie

for me,  or looking at forest

critters pictured in a

a book , instead I give

witness  to  an awesome view of

my wildlife world – like watching

the making of a Disney nature movie ,

outside my rural home. A mama

Moose and her twins  slowly

rise  from their rest to

browse leafy bushes ,

while a deer stops and stares

checking  for signs of hidden

danger before leading

her speckled fawn to a 

shaded spot between

two giant firs. A bluebird

and her brood are nesting

under the corner eave, while

an animated chipmunk scurries

across garden pavers.  Not far

in the distance a brown

bunny leaps across the

grassy path, and a

Swallow tail butterfly

gently flutters  by
