Standing at the edge of the brown field of corn, just bitten by the frost, orange, red and yellow leaves were making their way to the ground; piling up along the edge of the well worn path. The sunlight was blinding against the deep turquoise sky; beyond the field, a halo of clouds surrounded the mountain tops, while at the base stood a herd deer grazing on old cobs, their innocent eyes cautiously watching me. As I lifted my camera, they bolted, gracefully leaping into the protection of the trees that filled the hillside. I just stood in awe, believing there is nothing better than walking along a little path on a crisp country morning, knowing I'd just captured a real Kodak moment.

Bonnie - Superb prose. It brings to mind a similar event in my life, in which a mother cat was leading her kittens across the artillery range... well, that's another story - heh heh |

SEA - Thanks for reading and for your kind reply. Awwww Marcy - Thanks so much. Becky - Thanks, for your "awesome" and for providing the inspiration. LngJhn - Thanks for reading, glad it brought a memory back....I do believe my hubby remembered something too...I think it was the gleam in his eye and the way he jumped up and started cleaning the shotgun....poor little deer...... Thanks so much all, I truly do appreciate your kind replies. Bonnie |
