Counting syllables is not my strong point but these should each be 5/7/5

Secret Agent Spy

Nobody can ever know

Always telling lies

James Bond 007

Jason Bourne is on the run

Holmes solves mysteries

Jack Reacher, military

Government conspiracy

Espionage at it’s best.

A silent open field

A deer dashes away

Whoosh! silence again

A cold winter day

A fox slinks around

Trekking through snow

A dense summer forest

A bear sniffs the air

Following his nose towards food

Brother, I need you
the night has fallen

the world is bigger

just come
give your favorite girl a hug
