A rabbit and a fox
strolled together last night
across the snowy lawn
companionably it seems
in matching cadence
hops to sauntering tracks
trading important news
mutually interesting tidbits
of this food-starved season
at length, I think, they parted
one behind the forsythia bush
the other back into darker woods
I want to imagine
on that bleak, winter’s eve
a fond farewell between friends.
