How Silently It Treads
A giant ambles the quiet recesses of the wild
It’s uncanny how silently it treads
Vacant is the view one moment, then magically and mysteriously the behemoth materializes
Through the course of its passage there’s not a whisper from the broom
In the blink of an eye there’s a hushed departure

It is incredibly stunning how the largest living land mammal is so adept at moving noiselessly through the environment.
