The Fox

"As the elderly fox sits and ponders looking over the horizon his eyes not as sharp but they still get the job done, he remembers his travels when his coat was a darker shade of red. All his friends he met along the way, seeing distant lands beautiful landscapes, and some unforgiving environment but he made it though. He still wonders about his friends Mother Badger and Father Bear a very unlikely duo. Mother Badger so kind and knowledgeable how he would like to listen to her stories about her home and family. And father bear how funny he was always so happy and ready to eat. I often he missed that unlikely duo, "maybe one last adventure" he thinks to himself how he listen to his cats purr and snore. Or maybe just relax with his feline friends tomorrow is always another day for maybe another opportunity for another adventure his paws rest on his cane his coat getting lighter each day "tomorrow definitely tomorrow I can start a new journey" he thinks to himself " "and what a beautiful journey it will be" the elderly fox leans back in his chair surrounded by warmth and comfort.
