There you are
Standing upon the hilltop
An off-white white-tailed deer
Unlike your siblings
In shades of brown
Rare sweet cream

That is unusual. Did you take the picture?
The poem certainly describes this unique deer and I too like how the last line sums it up so beautifully.

Yes. The deer was one of four; a bit smaller and much lighter than the other three. Thank you! ๐

I like the ‘off-white white-tailed deer’ and ‘rare sweet cream’. There’s such a rhythm to it.
