Hey Mr Black Tip
Hey Mr Black Tip
Early this morning
on the way to church
I spied a beautiful
red fur covered critter
with a long pointed nose
a bushy tail as long as body
with a bushy black point
He ran along the fence line
with fearless speed
along the edge of pavement
He seemed to turn his head
looking from the corner of eye
for that place to escape
into a safe flat field of grass
He was a beauty all sleek
like a flash of red orange
but that tail tip was black!
mesmerized with the black tip
He ran a quick and sure pace
Actually he ran like wind
then quickly darted into the
nearest large green meadow
Goodbye Mr black tip tail Fox
I could hardly believe my eyes
seeing a bushy black tail tip
every other fox had a white tip
Run like wind Mr Black Tip
