Wolfman Falls In Love

Crisp night swirls leaves thru the air, the message's in the wind. Something weird has happened today, the wolfman's in a spin. He stopped by the vet who washed and detangled all his hair Cut and snipped his ragged nails - not much, while he was there. As he skated around the corner to pick up a new dog chain He stopped by the groomer, who cleaned and polished his fangs. Tonight he's meeting someone special what else could he think of- Besides, the leaves had carried it, the Wolfman had fallen in love. A ghost at the counter spooked, “You’ve been weird since noon” Wolfman said nothing simply stared at time in the moon. In a huff he said “On this special day I simply cannot be late- Meeting someone at midnight- by the cemetery gate”. Then he remembered he must stop- pick up fresh flowers- A new resident's in the grave yard, only been there a few hours. Eagerly he reached the cemetery, inhaled the smokey breeze- Movements of the night –the swaying of the leafless trees. The bats began serenading - with the owls from the sky right above Again the leaves were right- the wolfman has fallen in love. Valerie Sherman
