Doe, a deer

a female deer

and here she is....


she lives right here....
on Chapel Road


alongside Mr. Fox


and she's not very interested
in getting out of anyone's way

or any car's way

for precisely these two reasons:

and
they are....

.... yet, all is so peaceful
on the sandy byways
and in the wooded glen
and by the shores
of Gitchee Gumee
where sunbeams filter down
in dappled patterns
through lacy tree boughs
and......

then

suddenly
loudly

four kids
on a golf cart
coming careening down the road
and Doe-a-Deer says
(in deer language)
"I am so outta here!"
