Living in Harmony with the Doe

“She rose up, watched a moment for any response to her rising, then stretched and stepped out onto the open slope. Beside her, another doe rose up from the shade. The two stood, slightly oblique to one another, divided as the one’s ears had been to listen. They did not look my way, only below into the brushy ravines between shoulders of clear ground.”
– Kim Stafford, “A Walk in Early May,” from Having Everything Right: Essays of Place
