I Took A Walk In The Woods Today Poem by carolann crowley

I Took A Walk In The Woods Today



I took a walk in the woods today
watched a robin and blue jay
tending to the young in the nest
simple creatures doing their best
I saw a deer tending to her fawn
such tenderness in the early dawn
When I left I walked my street
what I saw was not so neat
Saw a Mom striking her child
never saw that in the wild
Saw a Dad scream at his Son
was it so bad what he'd done
Fighting over a parking space
oh such anger on a face
Saw kids fighting over a ball
were they taught to share at all
It made me turn and walk away
Think I'll walk in the woods today
