1. Viewpoint
Darkness over the land
Chaos, mayhem, destruction
The flap of swift dark wings
The call of the pack
Silver, brown, ebony pelts
Racing under the moon
Delicate spinners
Webs sparkling with bright dewdrops
Dancing on the wind
The glint of an eye
Hoarded treasures piled for sleep
Pierced by arrows
A bite and swift sting
Shimmering wings caught by light
Catching the unwary
Weeding the garden
Heavy boot steps trampling
Burrowing earthworms
A bright bushy tail
Sniffing around the hen house
Sharp eyes and white teeth
Sleek powerful wings
Nibbling at the ripest grain
Harsh caws floating by
The cold of the downs
Sending fear into all hearts
Dispelled by sweet songs
The crackling of a whip
Cloaked by darkness and shadow
Bursting into flame
Giggling and flirting
The click of stiletto heels
Scurrying in terror
