The Cat Fox Most Have Never Seen

enchanted forest held a secret creature unknown by man
it was a hybrid most have not seen in any kind of hamlet or land
an orange and brown cat-fox with green eyes that glow
I saw it in the corner of the oak trees, way down below

If you approach it, the cat-fox will immediately disappear
A warning taught to me by three aunts who were all dear
I did not dare get too close, but tried to get a picture
Before I could, that cat-fox disappeared in a smoky mixture.
