And foxes tease with tails to chase;
Rabbits crouch beneath the hedges,
And grey mice play amongst the sedges.

Chipped mountains
With the condor eyes
Flaked by some sinister
Grey hounds of the rocks.

The green jagged edges
Puffy clouds hither and thither
Cloud around the sedges

Clouds make love with high peaks
