Waving in the breeze,

the field is her tail and the

earth her warm body

Sometimes my horror haikus end up not horror at all 😅. 🦊

Wily little fox,

Just like a guard dog, except,

It finds its own food... 😎

Haha! I get quite a lot of foxes here. They're lovely to watch. Especially when they have the cubs, and they're all playing together! 😎

Rain and shine at once -

in glistening drops, forest

foxes walk to wed

___

Hide behind the trunk

hope the fox lords don't spot you

and catch a swift glimpse

Remembering the incredible scene in Akira Kurosawa's Dreams (1990) when the boy sees the fox spirits going through the forest to a wedding - so uncanny

I know right!? This definitely on the edge of horror, but it was hard to resist.
