Stepping through
crisp shadows
twitching ears
against pestering flies
stretching my neck
to whatever tastes good
I hear footsteps
approaching near
nothing to smell
no movement I sense
until suddenly
I see a man
appearing through
the moonlit trees
we soon become
two pairs of eyes
meeting by chance
in the stillness
of the wild
two hearts
beating
in the silence
we are one...

At first the subject of your poem drew me to believe it to be some animal, and being a lover of four legged creatures, I had thought a horse...

glad to see it was a deer....

Great picture, it fits the poem's POV perfectly. Thnaks for being a deer heart.
