Foal
Pine needles underfootAfter rain, dripping in the woodsWe wear no shoes when we cross the streamDappled shadows, brother pulling on my sleeveMove in cautiously behind the bushesThere's something in the leavesA foal is crying, its mother on the groundHer eyes are open but she makes no soundThe foal's leg is broken, crows circle all aroundA scream shoots through the branchesThen he covers my mouthWhat would Father do?We're all alone here and we don't know what to doHe leaves me standing by the mother and foalSays he won't be long but the minutes pass slowAnd after what seems hours, he returns to meWith a rock in his hands, he need not speakMoonlight on the stream and over our hands as we cleanMists rise through the green of the forest as we leaveMists rise through the green of the forest as we leave
