A Tree With Eyes

Janice Baer © November 2008

| Poetry | Home |

I’m off the ground 
And up so high
Where squirrels climb,
And birdies fly

A tree with eyes,
I sit so still,
All camo-ed up,
A deer to kill.

I scarcely move.
No sound I make,
‘Cept for the leaves
Of Aspen Quake

This tree with eyes,
She sees a deer,
So slyly moves
For window clear

Then makes the shot
With stick and string.
A dead deer down
A glorious thing.

And all because,
On this fine day,
A tree with eyes
Had found the way.
