One of the finest of morning views from our kitchen window is Deer Grazing in the rear meadow. Yesterday there was a whole group, quietly chomping on grass, along with one that was not the same as the others. Despite its unusual light-faun colouring none of the others took any notice…
One odd-coloured Deer,
grazing in the meadow,
none of the others noticed,
if a girl or a fellow.
It muddled in with the others,
no sign of any fear,
didn’t matter about the colour,
was just another deer!
None of them shunned it,
no-one called it ‘scum’,
and humans have the cheek to say:
“animals are all dumb!”
If we had half the sense of animals we’d be better humans. BB
