The Old Fox

Old fox walking over ice
Listening for cracks
Below water, a pit
Above, fire, brilliance, beauty
No one is around
Below water
Young fox dips his tail
And goes tumbling in
Behind the crow and gate
Old fox is eating from the bins
Above, fire
No one is around
Behind the crow and gate
Conditions are difficult
Old fox is eating from the bins
And full of responsibility
The task is great
Old fox walks over ice
