Sadie the aquafox
Sadie the aquafox leaps from the lake
giving its body a shake
A boy throws a ball
the aquafox takes chase
The ball lands behind the shed
aquafox stretches its legs
across the bright green lawn
Zigging and zagging to fetch

Snow Fields
The soft blown snow that fell five days ago
Crisp frozen now by these five frosty nights
Still blankets all the fields and moors to show

The inane braying still abounds
when port is drunk and fables spill,
about the right of man to kill
an animal who, turning back,
stood proud and noble on the hill
and faced the crimson vermin pack.
