Flash of Light
The book is red, being read by my sister at the time
The light flashed
No noise just a small hum
outside the window there was a bear it was climbing a bare tree
at the time of the light
no sound and no smell just a small hum
as the light flashed a hare’s hair stood on end
but did not get far from the light
a small hum
at the flash of light motion slowed
a deer and his dear child saw the flash of light
and were gone
when a family of foxes preyed on a meal and saw the flash
while a family prayed
the family prayed and nothing more
a huge flash of light and nothing more
nothing more
nothing more
a small hum.
