Poem Title:
Poem
Eyes furtive carry the reflected sheen of aluminium paint that is smooth a chrome flood On the tin roof of the woodshed seen, with moonlight awash, awaking the dreaming scene. The light has the tint of coyote’s hair; the furtive fox is rising to maraud with that Peripheral stare, the balance tail is curving around a body still turning, his eyes red dots Burn beside the russet and auburn fur, in the night full deep, guard dog in slumbering sleep, With a stealthy gait the stooping steep steps you negotiate, around the mottled boulders Grey you move or even! glide your way. The lightest breeze full on your face, with elegant Tresses like a filigree trace, to soundless halt you poise your form upon the ledge with its Girth two pace. Your.. goal in sight about to spring.! with visage grim, the huddled lambs Sense... sudden..fear! They start to bleat hear querulous tones, the move was neat! Yet P D Drops down on lightening feet, from her crop of rock with a body shock, she lands on him With her forked tree limb, his neck is pinned, in her sundown boots she stands on his tail at The very root, with feral fear his eyes a-glare, how now will the tale of the captured fox ensnared Unfold? Don’t destroy the tail of this fox caught cold! She could train him as her reddy scout He has a fine nose plus attuned senses that she alone caught out!.. or better still she could Keep him well penned perhaps in documents contained, or back to herr schäffer send! I have come out of retirement ha ha! for P D's inner animal contest . © JOE MAVERICK 2-01-2011
