Quite a wake-up call in the deer blind this morning! Seems we set up beneath a huge flock of gobblers.
Deer(Turkey) Woods
Whose woods
these are I think I know,
a quiet
place Robert Frost would go,
but here we
sit in quiet peace,
disturbed by
noisy turkey show;
My wife must
think it very queer,
I chose to
set our deer blind here,
when all we’ve
heard and seen this morn,
are many
gobblers all quite near;
I give my
frozen hands a shake,
to try to
warm for shooting sake,
but the only
permits yet to fill,
are for some
deer not here this date;
These woods
are certainly dark and deep,
we seek
venison not feathered meat,
but escapes
us now as we retreat,
escapes us
now as we retreat.
And of course, later on, they all come right to us. Number of deer tags to fill--4. Number of turkey tags to fill--ZERO!
