Oh Deer
I Saw It
Just when you think you have seen it all
Surprise
A deer in our headlights
Out of no where
They are so fast
This one not moving
Standing in the middle of the road
I was my wife's co pilot
With my eyes shut
We were still talking
I could feel the sudden swerve
As for the breaks my wife tapped them hard
What ?
In shock I yelled
Not fully grasping the danger of the situation
As we drove bye
The deer had headed back off the road
Into the woods
No time to react
Thanks to my wife's quick thinking
I am still here
Things could of turned out quite differently
Now what I thought was important
Totally slipped my mind
One of many reasons
To give you one big hug
I am glad we are both home safe
A chance to reflect on my day
With God's love guiding the way
We know the risks while driving
As much as we do
On the road at least three hours a day
Goingcto work and back home again
Boy does time fly
Just when we were having so much fun
