Lone Fox / A Friend In Me (By Mark Borne)

Author's Note: This is a combination of two previously posted poems ("Lone Fox" and "A Friend In Me") that I wrote. I discovered recently that, combined, they actually worked well together, and decided I'd repost it as a single poem. Hope you enjoy!

Sometimes I looked out at the endless sea,
Wondering what was left here for me.
The tears began to sting my eyes,
As if I was one who at sad sights cries.
But then I got up as my eyes fell upon a lone fox,
At that moment, the whole world seemed to fit in a box.
Funny how even the simplest of creatures,
Can claim to be the most relaxing of features.
The road is long, and bumpy, too,
But just remember, I'm here for you.
Over the mountains, across the sea,
Remember you've got, a friend in me.

Mark's Addition : So...well...yeah, if anyone else wants to do one, let me know. Apparently, this is the thing to do on my blog right now, though I admit, I have no clue why.

Nexus Mad Libs

I assume most of you are familiar with what Mad Libs are. Basically, you're given a bunch of blanks to fill in, and you do so without knowing what the story is. Each blank has a part of speech labeling it, and that blank needs something that fits the part of speech. For example: Adjective: ________ --> Adjective: Explosive In the end, we usually have a hilarious end result that makes no sense whatsoever. One example is this (which is a real result I got once with my siblings): "Another way to help you fall asleep faster is drinking a nuclear glass of warm vinegar ." First, let's go over some rules. Obviously, keep it family friendly. This still goes for all blog content. Do not submit two words in a row. Submit one, and when someone else does one, you may do another. Submit through comments. That'll make it easier for me to assemble the final result. The category is Medieval Heroes . Here are the blanks: Adjective: Constipated (Kyra) Per
