Discovery Trail

Along the curving forest track

Luminous sky fades to night

We walk together or one in back

Following our flashlight

Chasing back darkness to reveal

Secrets hiding between the trees

Our fear sufficient to conceal

The very thing we hope to see

As we hang back our lights reflect

Two very large eyes detect

Alien visitors we

Capture lasting memory

A story told of mild duress

Amid the sprawling wilderness

Me, my wild adventuress

And, of course, the moose
