You will have to answer that riddle for me Canoebear.
Maybe because he intuitively knows that he can outrun my dog and being about the same size as she is, perhaps they could strike up a friendship instead of being enemies. |

"Deep Forest 'Twas Darkened"
To no tha dark backwoods with-out be-en unlit,
'tis to no tha dimness darkness of nightfall.
In fact, to no tha dark timber, break-in when
pitch black so to come across & to find/or meet
by chance with tha absence of quieted darkness.
In tha winter, in tha dark, comes early,
when strangely shadowed by tha dark side of
tha moon.
To make night passage carrien a dark lantern in remote isolation of tha far NE that be most darkish.
May not be a clear view understanden of tha
darkened period amidst tall trees after dark, until 1 wanders way-in, but could darken 1's hopes.
To discover tha deep shade in tha cover darklen,
dare to travel from beginnen to end,
from 1 end to tha other, in tha hours of darkness, by-way of night dimmed light.
21st of December be a Superior dark time to be in tha bush, to lay Bear & haven sum sense gist of tha "Dark's Worth" + it's dimensions.
When darkness falls into tha forest at night,
listen to tha silence of darkness & 1 will
take-in + make-out, tha dare to tha dark.
See-en a blanket cover of blackness.
'Tis tha "Silence in tha Night",
1 will unseemly bring to light, Heya!
