(I wrote this a long time ago but I am re-publishing it to honor those murdered in Yellowstone )
Cold winter night.
Bright full moon.
Fir trees trembling
In the frosty wind.
Floating on the silence
Unmistakable
Wolf song
Ancient forest
Ancient sounds
From years uncounted
Even to now
Floating on the silence
Evocative
Wolf song.
Two-legs hears
Fear grips him
Calling up ancient memories
Of fang and rending
Floating on the silence
Sinister
Wolf song
Sing to the moon
Gray, yellow eyed hunter
Call to your brothers
To join in the hunt
Floating on the silence
Joyful
Wolf song
Run with wind
Mighty gray one
Run with joy of cold air
In your face
Floating on the silence
Eager
Wolf song
Hunt for your little ones
Noble provider
Hunt for your mate
Generous lover
Floating on the silence
Lovingly
Wolf song

Thank you for posting to The Surreal Circus.
Red Velvet
White Wolf
wrapped in red velvet
hammers out tunes
of yesterday's afternoon.
I had to read this one as I believe the Wolf to be my totem animal, known as the Teacher - you obviously are kin.
