An Unmistakable Sound
Ahh
That unmistakable sound
Rasping, rapid rumble
Coarse and grainy.
Oh, I know
It is a sound of
A possum below
Under my window.
Gone to ground
What had brought it round
To visit me?
The ruckus seemed to be
A challenge coming forth
A battle to be fought
For territory
Since we arrived.
Occupation was dominant
Yet, nature will out
Old natural territories stand
Across generations of critters
Home to this land
Down to today.
