Hunting

All I felt was my body tremble.

I was so nervous and excited.

It was so quiet I would have to whisper,

The rain was so cold.

I could feel the cool breeze touch my skin.

The leaves were blowing by me.

All I could hear was the splash of rain.

Falling into the puddle,

I could hear the birds singing.

It felt like they were right next to me.

But when I saw it step out.

I shot the rifle at it.

I felt really awful doing such a thing.

But I was ready to have that wonderful taste

Of venison jerky.
