Of Foxes The fox in me has doubled back To walk upon my coming track But dust has formed a layer thick And I of course am not as quick It takes me to a place I’ve been Back into a former green And as I search about the field There seems to me a musty yield Things have changed, a look of gray And yesterday is not today The trees in moss has grown in hang The taste of air has lost its tang Sadness seems to hang in lace The rose is gone and left a space And I am in a clime of age Like yellow turns in time a page I do not like its Coventry Nor do I like the pageantry |

Deep thoughts for me to contemplate this morning. well written, such beautiful imagery in this piece. ~Live and Laugh~ The nice thing about being a pesimest is that your either right, or pleasantly surprised. |

I learned so much from this writing...it is not what is said, but the way it is said that provokes one to think. You indeed made me think and rethink. Thanks... Patricia |

Saymour, loved the metaphor of the fox! Once you have smelled a rose, you never forget the smell and are always capable of smelling again! Keep the rose alive! pictureme |
