A small deer

Wanders slowly

Into the woods

I drive past

Wondering

About its

Meaning

Then

A beautiful sunrise

Interrupts

My thoughts

With its intense beauty

Over the plowed fields

As time unfolds

The intensity

Of its colors

Of purple and orange

Increases

Back to the deer

Is she alone

Lonely

Sad

Or just

Oblivious

To the darkness

Of the woods
