Tally Baker, son of Joe, jumped off the lonesome bridge
"She's Gone" he cried, and knew at last he'd no reason to live.
What's the point of living if he'd only lived for her?
Why should he go on, when they went on no more?
The lonesome bridge did weep to see the end of poor sweet Tally.
He sacrificed his one keystone and crashed into the valley.
The creek gave out a sigh that traveled on in haunting echo
And gurgled as she swallowed and the bridge went down below.
The vixen saw the whole affair, perched high upon the hill,
She waited for the hunter man and let him make the kill.
Her tiny cubs were left alone, froze and slipped away.
The night could not bear anymore, and gave the sky to day.

 reports, 1d 23h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
