Fallow Pair

The two male deers were quite content,
Companions full of grace,
No hate, no guile, with each a friend,
Fond memories to trace...
From years gone by, both warm and cold,
Adventures day and night,
Surrounding beauty to behold,
Beneath the sun's great light...
The forest birds still sang along,
Some flying overhead,
Some building nests they hope are strong,
For offspring to be fed...
With tiny flower fragrances
God placed upon the ground,
That would help to bless the senses
And sometimes quite astound...
And here, I stand, observing all,
My Nature Watch complete,
Regarding both the great and small
That I by chance would meet...
The two male deers oblivious
As I smiled by a tree,
Accepting all things glorious
That God meant me to see...
