The old fox


Among the taller wood with ivy hung
The old fox plays & dances round her young
She snuffs & barks if any passes by
& swings her tail and turns prepared to fly
They get all still & lie in safety sure
& out again when everythings secure
& start & snap at blackbirds bouncing by
To fight & catch the great white butterfly
