Clever Stupid Fox

The lithe body sprang,
She galloped and landed with bang,
She came in my sight,
I had come for a hike,
In the jungle,
To see animals wander and mingle,
Everybody says that foxes are shrewd,
But this one appeared to be bad and prude,
She had also sighted us,
But decided not to budge,
She was there staring with a hung jaw,
She even let several tasty deers pass raw,
She was taken by those who had intruded,
And my word clever fox was looking pretty stupid.
