A WINTER GIFT
*****************

A flash of russet red fur

On the snow covered hill

Catches my eye


The fox pauses in mid-stride

In a photo-op perfect pose

Saucily glancing over its

Shoulder at me


Whiskers glisten with

Ice crystals of diamond like

Radiance in the sun


For a moment I am blinded

As the light splinters into

Flashes of pure blue white

Until he turns away


Then like a surprise gift

Hidden in the wrapping

At the bottom of the box


His mate joins him

From the den

Camouflaged by

Fallen leaves


In no hurry

And in the perfect stillness

Of the day


They trot across the ridge

Beyond the tree line

And out of view
