silly
filly
love ain't for sheep, chilly Billy sighs,
drains many a silly filly dry
we consume lizards, small birds and fruits
our extra furry feet protect us against hot sand
our overdeveloped ears protect us from the sun
we live in Northern Africa’s desert
Foxes
lay in the dirt
summer heat
red red against the dusk
mama watches kits chase shaking herself
fireflies dance about
she wanders to the creek for water
they scamper behind her
ready for adventure
Form:
Foxes have holes and birds have nests for bed
but Jesus had nowhere to lay his head.
It is he who calls us
to leave all without fuss
as we follow in the Way that he led.
Luke 9.57-62
Flummoxed foxes fleeing, fumbling forward from furious
Hurried heaving hounds howling hourly hitherto
Stop
Withered weathered wild woods would weep when
Man made memories murdering many mammals
Stop
Furry red
Fox kits in a
Pile of three
Bringing a smile
To the face of me
Are they sly and
Are they slick?
Are they ready
To tumble and
Rumble and flip?
They look so tame
Just sitting there
I want to run my
Fingers through
Their red hair!!!
triplet red foxes
born in the meadow nearby ~
not afraid of me

A fine family of foxes,
a feisty mom and her two kits
living near humans by shrewd wits.
Her constant success flummoxes.
Kits are tiny jack-in-the-boxes,
heads bobbing while mom baby sits.
NB: Other - Sextilla: A Sp. stanza form of six octosyllabic or shorter lines. In the classic period, the usual rhyme schemes were abbaab.
Some humans are foxes
let them sit and reflect
before a fox of men
they were fragile babies
Some humans are inhuman
let them shut eyes and see
before acting inhumanly
they were humane
Some humans are angry cocks
let them cool down and check
before behaving as angry cocks
they were talon-less chicks
No one is best, no one must be fox
Treat humans as human you are
