The Body Part 1!

Was in a body of evidence.
She was lost.
Young body was found.
Lain on the wooded forest floor.
In a glade.
A shaft of sunlight illuminated a tragedy.
In near silence.
Not even a hare's breath.
Only sound was chorus of dawn from duplicitous birds.
Covering up errors of night's foray.
While hunting for snippets on the wind.
Snippets of moths and remnants of bugs.
Weren't out for carrion.
Did not notice last night's carry on.

The walkers wandered through the trees.
Found sunlit copse where body lay.
She was young.
Auburn haired.
So pretty.
Laid out precisely.
Liken to sleep.
Barely untouched.
Not a hair out of place.
Strange serene smile upon her young face.
Eyes closed tight, as a flower in bud.
Pallid.
Death had stolen her colouring.
Taken her life away.
