Raindrops fell through a tender breeze,
animals sheltered under rocks and trees.
The sun shone bright when the clouds moved on,
but the nests were soiled and the birds had gone.
Silence was deafening in the harrowed wood,
feathers blew on where the geese once stood.
Darkness set in the woods that eve,
and the rabbits came out of their burrows to breathe.
Smoke rose slowly through the cool night air,
and the leaves blew away on whims and prayers

Excellent imagery and that last line seemed sad to me. Unless of course I am misinterpreting it... it seemed to end in a smoldering of a forest fire?
At any rate, it was a great read and thank you for posting it.
