We went walking not knowing it was our last
to the edge of the forest where the new world starts
You saw your chance & made a break
to go face off with your old enemy the Tiger Snake
The choice that sealed your destiny to die at my feet
smiling thankful for all the rabbit meat
& the chance to roam the hills a free hound
nose to the ground onto the next life unbound
