“Behold!”, I wrote, “come and see,

The seven year old (obviously, me),

Who, With complete disregard for her health,

Absolutely no thought of herself,

Jumped into a pond to save a drowning fox!”

“With Such Grace and majesty

She prevented great tragedy,

Showed such integrity,

Give the girl a medal! Or the key to the city!”

The grown ups did reward me,

For my wonderfully written story.

My work of Fiction.

Still, being published in the local press,

Is something to be proud of, I guess.

But some day I hope,

I can save a fox in real life.
