Thank You Mr Fox

“...The great teacher inspires.“ William Arthur Ward “Gratitude is a powerful catalyst for happiness. It’s a spark that lights a fire of joy in your soul.” Amy Collette “Gratitude turns what we have into enough” Anonymous THANK YOU MR. FOX What does the Fox say - his kind eyes, emphatically speak; his hopped-up ears in tune. A sheltered girl sans life experience in a room full of snapping turtles. Mr. Fox did not extinguish the timid light. Instead he sprinkled ideas — fireworks explode. The Fox says very little and so much. His pointed ears and gentle spirit saw hope in a teenage cocoon. The Fox was wise...his tale goes on in mine. Dendrites lift you up — rolling out the clouds. 10/29/2019 Favorite Teacher or Professor Poetry Contest Sponsor: Chantelle Cooke
