Very near the she-bear lumbers Past the sharp palmettos Paw prints on the garbage can Under star-filled skies She walks silently Obscured by the quiet night Leaving scant paw prints on the path While we slumber Crickets serenade us Three manatees see Bright moon, darting gar Cold springs empty of visitors I walk in the dark dreamworld And move without sight Surrounded by sure feet and wings Stillness finds darkness throbs and sings

Blue Springs Park at Night
Very near the she-bear lumbers Past the sharp palmettos Paw prints on the garbage can Under star-filled skies She walks silently Obscured by the quiet night Leaving scant paw prints on the path While we slumber Crickets serenade us Three manatees see Bright moon, darting gar Cold springs empty of visitors I walk in the dark dreamworld And move without sight Surrounded by sure feet and wings Stillness finds darkness throbs and sings
While camping out at Blue Springs Park in Florida we saw evidence of bears at the garbage can area, but never saw more than paw prints.  A magical place, especially at night when all the snorkelers go home.  Water is 72o, lots of gar & manatees.
