Ten-point buck in the bushy brush
Silently testing the calm hush Of the sprouted feed plot, so lush, No need to rush, No need to rush. Hunter in camo grips his gun First time ever he's brought his son Out for some early morning fun, Each desires one, each desires one. The stately deer steps out to eat Just as the cold rain turns to sleet. Low'ring his head to the young wheat, He chomps his treat, he chomps his treat. Raising the gun and drawing bead Pulling the trigger ends the deed. The dying buck begins to bleed. What was the need? What was the need?
