Thought some of you guys might enjoy a poem I wrote last year and the buck that inspired it.
Death fiddle
The death fiddle plays out that old solemn sound, a respectable buck awaits on the ground.
The woods were distressed as the ole song rang out, now peace is restored as I wait it all out.
Emotions run wild, of joy, sadness, and pride, approaching the beast I kneel down by his side.
Taking a moment to give Thanks to the Lord, Thanks for this life and the blessings outpoured.
Could not have done it alone, to see what I mean read the words that are written Phillipians four verse thirteen.
The work was put in, the creator sees all. The reward for the time, an incredible fall.
Its an all year round thing, a notion discarded by some.
Its been called a game, but to "play" is not why Ive come.
Alone in the dark I now pause to reflect, at how for these animals I have the utmost respect.
I give thanks once more and then rise to my feet, this is where Im at home in my forest retreat.
Some dream of great fortunes thus their passions delete, I simply dream for this day, to be played on repeat.

You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.
