Each day (except Sundays) in April, I'm writing
poems with some obscure words starting with the letter of the day, and
then doing a small watercolor to go with it. Today's Letter is V in this Blogging A to Z Challenge.
Vulpine
Sweet, versute vixen of wooded glen
Mid viridity has made her den.
She meanders on a the sheltered trail
Close to smallish game in vale.
A frog, a rat, a mouse or vole
She’ll carry back to sheltered hole
Where kits will play with evening meal
Before consuming prey with zeal.
