One bright afternoon, a hungry fox trotted through a vineyard. The air smelled sweet, and his stomach gave a hopeful growl.
Above him hung clusters of shining purple grapes, heavy and perfect. “Ah,” he said, licking his lips, “that’s the feast I’ve been waiting for!”
He crouched low. His eyes gleamed. One, two, three—spring! But the grapes danced just out of reach.
He landed in the dust, tail flicking. “No matter,” he said. “Just a warm-up jump.”
He tried again—up onto a rock, leap! Brush of leaves, swish of tail… still too high.
The fox backed up for a running start. He sprinted, launched— but the grapes shimmered teasingly above his head.
Landing hard, he panted. His paws were sore, his fur dusty. The birds chattered softly: “Almost?”
The fox glared up. “Almost isn’t good enough,” he muttered. He tried one last great leap, and missed again.
At last he sat down beneath the vine, chest heaving. His clever eyes narrowed. “Well,” he said, “they’re surely sour anyway.”
Far down the path, the fox muttered to himself, “Better to pretend I never wanted them.”
And somewhere, a whisper of truth lingered: It’s easy to call something sour when we cannot reach it.
