Lesson of Nature: A Poem
The archer nocked his shaft and feather
Sighting in his foe
Clad in only flesh and leather
Stalking out the doe
Long had he waited
Patiently for the deer
The only part he hated
Being silent and still to hear
The doe moved from the bush
Eating cautiously content
The bowman quivered, his face went flush
Her eyes began to lament
Nature's child, virgin and pure
Turned her gracious head
Pleading eyed for pity's cure
More than nothing was said
Noses met, thoughts were passed
The "beast" frolicked off
The hunter remained until the sun's last
Thankful for this friend lost.
