Met with a wink
And a sly smile
Her sharp eyes
Hide awhile
In the shrub
She crawls and bounds
Her paws rub
As she glides the grounds
Her red mane
Of hair and dirt
She won’t train
She won’t hurt
She bounds about
In joyous leaps
She leaves about
Every few weeks
Return she may
Or leave and go
It’s every day
I still won’t know
Yet each time
I lose my heart
She comes around
And heals it smart
She’s always there
In dusk or dawn.
She lives in trees
And all beyond
Forever may
She sail the clouds
Yet all the way
She loves me now
She tells me so
And I hear it
I love her so
I won’t forget
That she lives on
Each day and night
Beyond the stars
Within the light
Her spirit is
A strong fox jumping
And when I see her
I run, coming
