THE DOG FOX

One eerie day in June
The winter snow arrived.
Time overhung in damoclean quiet,
And all the forest waited, hued in white.

A spectral stillness reigned,
Awaiting a reprieve.
An icy hand of chillness held all sway
As cracking frost-flung boughs met morning light.

Their echoed sound remained
Beneath a Crayon sun,
Ethereal cries of missing, lost and lone
Ascended through each height.

A slash of orange fire,
Eye locked to wary eye,
As nature meeting nature eerily,
Each sad in fear, and undecided flight.

A moment stolen, held
In frozen tense relief,
A lifted paw, an eye-blink instant, still
To disappear from sight.

Ron Kaye May 2000

Some fantastically unique phrases in this...love the 'crayon sun'!

So was it a freak snow, or do you reside in the southern hemisphere?

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

I gather you don't live in southern Ontario! LOL

BTW Welcome to Passions and you're off to a great start with this uniquely expressed poem!
