As I see the colors in the sky,
lighting up like the forth of July.
I see the wind pick up again,
as the leaves begin to lift.
They flutter,
they whirl,
the wind begins to twirl.
When it ends I hear a snap,
and look over to see a creature.
She's tall,
and lean,
but not at all mean.
Her fur glows in the suns rays,
like a spirit of nature that has come out to play.
Just when I think it's all over,
I see a shadow.
A pair of fawns come out to play,
like it had been ages since they had last seen the day.
As they all play in the sun beams,
I begin to think of how lucky I am to see.
