AMERICAN LIFE IN POETRY Column 573

By Ted Kooser, U.S. Poet Laureate

HILIP TERMAN IS A PENNSYLVANIA POET WHO,��

Deer Descending Perhaps she came down for the apples, or was flushed out by the saws powering the far woods, or was simply lost, or was crossing one open space for another. She was a figure approaching, a presence outside a kitchen window, framed by the leafless apple trees, the stiff blueberry bushes, the after-harvest corn, the just-before-rain sky, a shape only narrow bones could hold, turning its full face upward, head tilted to one side, as if to speak. I want my life back. Morning settles around her like a silver coat. Rustling branches, hooves in flight.

Ted Kooser U.S. Poet Laureate, 2004-2006
