ADVENTURE WITH SKY, by                    
First Line: Dusk crept out from the woods to the water
Last Line: The fawn bent down and sampled sky!
Subject(s): Dusk; Forests; Sky; Water; Woods


Dusk crept out from the woods to the water;
Dusk followed the feet of the red deer's daughter;
Akin to silence, she carefully stepped
Where water woke and the warm sand slept;
A dropped star fluttered along the brink --
Star in the water! Dared she drink?
Hesitant -- eager -- with valorous sigh
The fawn bent down and sampled sky!
