I often find
The fox’s bark
Fills my mind.
How fast the light
Fades in woodland glades
And becomes the dark
Of suffocating night.
In the park
Where children play
His cold, sharp bark
Seems to say
You spend your day
In the sun
But the night
Blots out light
And your day
Is done.
(The final stanza is very long compared to the first 2 and I am not sure how the poem hangs together. Would welcome the views of my readers. Thanks. Kevin).

I really enjoyed this poem, Kevin. Happy New Year.
Thank you, Robbie. I’m so pleased you enjoyed it. And a happy new year to you to. All the best. Kevin
Have you considered writing it without stanza breaks?
Great idea, Liz. Thank you. Interestingly, when I recorded the poem for my Tiktok yesterday evening the same thought popped into my head. Sometimes, when one reads something aloud it provides one with a clearer idea as to how the poem should appear on the written/virtual page. Best wishes. Kevin
Thanks! You are so right about reading a poem aloud for an audience.
