Fox At Midnight

Rustling in the bush The night time world awakens Dark eyes in moonlight The red fox is curious Unworried, he trots away

gosh I love this simple tanka showing such a vivid picture of that curious fox. If it were my contest, this one would rate high. Loved your story about the cat too.

Dear LNC, Your poem reminded me that the red fox is an endangered species. I hope whatever was "rustling in the bush" doesn't hinder the fox's chances to rebound. Awesome entry for the contest and I wish you success as well as a Happy Easter. Love, Carolyn
