magical meeting
Hedgehog Moon
by gansach
|
This poem was inspired by a scene from one of my favorite books, The Once and Future King by T.H. White. Merlin turns Wart into a badger, but Wart is in a bad mood. He meets a hedgehog in the night forest and threatens to eat him, but discovers it's one of the hedgehogs Merlin kept in his cottage. Wart wants to be friends, but since he is in the guise of a feared predator, the hedgehog just serenades him and stays rolled up.
