Running Straight For... What?
The snow-white fox stares me.
I stare back.
We both continue to stand there,
Boring our eyes into each other.
Then it runs,
Just runs into the forest of
Tall evergreens behind it.
I don't know why,
But I follow it.
I run past the trees
As their branches scrape my arms.
I am only in a T-shirt and sweatpants.
I stop.
I know I will lose the fox,
But I must ponder this.
I am all around snow,
Although, I only feel warmth.
Should I not be freezing?
Strange...
I catch sight of movement
Close to my left.
I forget what I had been
Thinking before.
I turn to my left
And break right into a fun
Once more.
I move so swiftly now,
The branches no longer
Digging into my skin.
I have finally caught up to the
Beautiful animal.
I'm right up to it now.
I wonder what it would be like
To stroke it's wonderful fur...
I place my hand out,
About to place it on the animal's head,
But then...
I wake up.
