Let me tell a story
about the fox on my wall.
Lighting up my words
and following my movements.
Whispering happy thoughts
about meetings and love.
Shaking out his bushy tail
to comfort me in anxiety.
He comes to life at night
when I need him most.
He sleeps during the day
when I am gone.
At least I think he sleeps
The little fox keeps me company
when I just want to be alone.
He smiles when I cry
and cries when I'm in pain.
The fox is my friend
who knows what I need.

**And he's a ******* nightlight.
