//**"...with a twist of wet leaves and led her away..."-**// To me, this line implies a semi evil presence in the poem. Something that is named only as "night". It is a big use of personification, and talks about twists, wet leaves, winter, and night. These aren't commonly associated with happy things. From the line, we have to wonder who "//her//" is. In my mind, it is the doe. The creature that silently drinks now, although it hasn't always. And as the poem talks of a lost morning, a lack of dawn, I imagine the doe representing dawn. Silent, with an almost unnoticed presence that still maintains a feeling of grace. The line suggest that the darkness and dominance of winter and night, uses everything against dawn, or so it seems by the lack of light.

Well done!
