The Hunter and the Deer


The hunter went on a journey 

To find some deer meat

He saw a buck and looked into his eyes

He saw a plea, the buck begging for his life 

A doe and a fawn came from behind

Needing the buck in their lives.

 

The hunter knew what he came for and raised his gun

But out of nowhere he saw the buck’s son 

It was cute to say the least

And if he killed the buck he’d feel like a beast

The hunter looked at the deer again 

And something grew in him.

 

He gathered some nuts and fed the the deer

And he felt the deer’s lack of fear

He smiled a great big smile

He stayed with the deer for a while 

And he went home feeling great.
