Veritas sequitur …
In the small beauty of the forest
The wild deer bedding down— That they are there!
Their eyes Effortless, the soft lips Nuzzle and the alien small teeth Tear at the grass
The roots of it Dangle from their mouths Scattering earth in the strange woods.
They who are there. Their paths Nibbled thru the fields,
the leaves that shade them Hang in the distances
Of sun The small nouns Crying faith
In this in which the wild deer Startle, and stare out.
I like this poem because it seems very serene, the way it talks about the forest and the animals. The word choice and tone make it seem very whimsical and calm. I like the quote at the beginning in Latin which is Veritas sequitur and that means truth follows.
