Winter

On a fine winter day

In a log cabin I stay,

Went out for a nice long walk,

With a friend so I could talk.



A great day we came to see,

And took glory upon every tree,

As we stopped we saw a glimmer of light,

In a pile of white.



Stepping closer we saw a fox,

Stuck in a trap among the rocks,

We came close and it snarled,

Its leg appeared to be gnarled.



We called the vet,

And her plan was set,

To keep the fox,

In a cell with a lock.



“Once it was ready”,

Said the nurse Betty,

“I will set it free,

Beyond the trees.”



And that is the story,

Behind my glory,

Because I saved a fox,

Hidden beyond the rocks.
