Bay Lynx

5 1 1
                                        

The bawl of the bay lynx echoes

Between the fogged ceiling and farmers' fields

Through alleyways and out to the piers

The cry trickles along the brooks

It gets trapped in the culverts

Neighborhood dogs bay at the memory

The moon is covered in soot

The horns of automobiles

Snuff out the cry for help

A/N:

I like nature. Human's need to redefine their 'progress'.  It is too often measured as increasing our footprint on the world.

What did you think of the poem. 

Votes are appreciated.
