The Silent Fox Beneath the Moonlight

A poem about the mystery, grace, and wisdom of the wild.

In twilight’s hush, where shadows play,

A fox appears at the edge of day.

With amber eyes that softly gleam,

It moves like whispers through a dream.

Its paws leave prints on silver ground,

So light, they make the faintest sound.

A fleeting flame, a breath of fire,

A spark of wild, untamed desire.

🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊

The forest bends to watch it glide,

A spirit that cannot be tied.

It knows the secrets we can’t see,

The ancient truth of what must be.

🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊

It hunts the night with graceful art,

A wild song beating in its heart.

Yet in its gaze, a gentle plea,

For peace, for life, for liberty.

🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊

Oh, clever fox of dusk and dawn,

Teach us how to wander on.

To move through life with silent grace,

To leave no mark, yet touch each space.

🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊

For even wild hearts find their way,

Beyond the dark, beyond the day.

And in the fox, we learn the key,

To live in truth and still be free.

🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊

Would you follow a path unknown,

If it led you to a soul your own?
