His hair was red, like the fall leaves on a maple.

His white chest gleamed in the sunlight. 

And cunning brown eyes searched my forest ones.

He was a red fox, and I was his forest.


A sly smile spread over his face.

"Come, dance with me," he said.

And together, we danced.


His bushy beard was a fox tail, red like his hair.

Freckles sprinkled over his nose. 

"Come with me," he said. 

His brown eyes searched mine.

He was a red fox, and I was his forest.
