Daily Note

Every day, a photograph, a poem. On our walk today, this little mule deer fawn and her mother crossed our paths, aware of us but not really worried. In the morning light, her colors of rust and cream seem the softest on earth. The eyes and ears ponder our danger, before she continues nibbling, unafraid. We are not danger.

And in my email when I began to consider my poem for the picture, EthicalELA shared a poem type: Fibonacci Poem: syllables per line: 1,1,2,3,5,8. And so, a poem.

Fibonacci Poem: syllables per line: 1,1,2,3,5,8

Always Ready

Fawn
Stops
Alert
Ears Listen
Is there danger here?
Ready for a nibble or… run.
