Deer, In Coarsest Coat

By lupus tenebrae

Deer,
bounding off
on agile hooves, shadows; flighty,

gaunt, the flecks of fresh snow-
fall entrapped in coarsest coat.

    I have read you quite abit, I've never got the words to relate my thoughts though, which is rare. I enjoy the feel of your writing, the perceptive view of a world around, the detail, intricate movement of what I read from you. I'm far from a critic of any sort, but the words you write are enjoyably crisp. Thank you for that.
