[Day 56] Alert

Nothing makes me still faster

and listen harder than hearing

a crunch of snow in

what was supposed to be

an empty Forest.

There, in the trees, I hear the 

gentle crunching and although

my heart kicks into overdrive

my body stills as I watch

the Lord of the Forest

emerge.

How He can move through the 

branches with those antlers,

I will never know.
