Fiddle Creek Story

Fiddle Creek Story

Autumn leaves rustle

a gentle hush

a chirp

a chirp

a chorus leads along

the old rock wall

a path in the songs

of robins and chickadees 

above the tinkling trickle

of Fiddle Creek

where we pause

on the wooden footbridge

and close our eyes to enjoy

nature’s symphony, 

when a stomp

and rustle

in fallen maple leaves

a soft carpet of yellow

finds mule deer

startled, hesitant

then ambling by,

settling in to their

afternoon nap.
