Poem of the Day for 12/21/24 An Autumn Scented Day by Thomas K. Hunt Two yearlings in the forest Separated all their lives Still in that same wild forest They learned how to survive A proud molding buck And a soon to be wise doe Shared that same wild forest But that, they didn’t know Safe within their boundaries Content along their runs They moved to independence By way of instinct and the sun Just inside a clearing On a brisk autumn day A scented breeze of misty musk Passed by this young bucks way Unlike any other This aroma turned his tail When he gazed his eyes upon her Cupids’ arrow did impale With puffed out chest and gaitly stride Two snorts the marriage began Never to want another Together to the end Soon to spawn their yearlings And start them on their way To search for their own clearings On an autumn scented day 12/13/2003 Visit Thomas K.
