“Some souls speak with no words said” by Avalynn Kelley
Some souls speak with no words said, the ones who show love through action when others have fled. They are the animals— the ones who sit with you when you cry, who watch you grow, and never leave your side. My love for animals will always be ongoing, because at my lowest, I didn’t receive…

Fox Eyes
The fox sniffs the outside of its den before cautiously climbing out. A shadow above warns it of potential danger, and the vulpine hides among the emerald bushes.
