The Deer Our eyes meet, yours wide and wild, fear shining through, with a little dab of curiousity. Elegantly and slow, you lower your head, eyes never leaving mine, as you munch on lucious greenery. Then suddenly, your head shoots up and you give a one - two flick of the tail and you're gone. The only evidence of your presence, the memory in my mind of your eyes on mine, gazing straight into my heart. |

vivid, captivating, mesmerizing just as the deer to you and by you, until it flipped its tail |

Wow...I knew a guy like this---  Beautiful, fleeting image he was too... (His head is gonna look real nice over the mantle...grin... JUST KIDDING) This is gorgeous me smitten kitten...so realistic it left a vision of a white tuft tail and shaking branches. |

Serenity ~ hehe, I would much prefer seeing their animated behind leaping off into the forest than their inanimate head nailed to a wall! Thanks for enjoying the moment with me! |

Sunshine ~ Success! thank you! Cpat Hair ~ I hate when they're on the road and have that moment of indecision! And you're right, they do run! Thanks for the comments and read |
