on the icy ground
an arctic fox just appeared
soon he’ll melt away 🦊❤️
As we did our weekly qigong practice outside in the freezing air, I became fixated on blades of grass trapped in the icy puddle. I snapped a photo when we finished, already planning to use it for my next haiku post. I wrote the post but did not publish it at the last minute. I quickly composed and wrote another one for the day. I went back to revisit the abandoned post and lo and behold my focus moved from the grass to the image of a white fox (arctic fox) that seemed to appear at the top of the photo. I love it when patience pays off. I love it when unexpected surprises appear. Sadly yesterday’s warmer weather melted the Arctic Fox. 🦊❤️
