The serenity of the moment
surpasses all, standing near
the sight and the wonder
of two, white tailed deer
Not afraid or aloof
they returned my glare, my stare
just off of my balcony
wondering why, I'm there
The stand-off, of amazement
a simple sound they glean
something I couldn't hear
sauntering, from the scene
A glimpse, a peak
of fascination, so supreme
nothing left to ponder
intruding, nature's dream

The serenity of the moment
surpasses all, standing near

of two, white tailed deer
Not afraid or aloof
they returned my glare, my stare
just off of my balcony
wondering why, I'm there

a simple sound they glean
something I couldn't hear
sauntering, from the scene
A glimpse, a peak
of fascination, so supreme
nothing left to ponder
intruding, nature's dream
My dog, was on our patio, looking intently at something, ears ***** tail still, quiet. I went out and stared where he did, at two white tail doe, staring back, munching on the foliage, it lasted about a minute, but seemed forever, as they were not fearful. They were about 20 ft away, when their ears twitched and they sauntered into the woods, I have a feeling, I'll see them again :)
