A Winter's Plea - Collaboration With White Wolf
The cold winter has arrived
and the pack leader must be strong
he gathers the tribe to discuss preservation
as he does every time winter comes
With their ally, Raven, cawing nearby
The trees shiver from heavy snow
A scented breeze captures their nostrils
With the hunt now ready to commence
"Now listen up my pack
we must unite to survive
as the food supply is scarce
we must work together to last the cold"
The alpha aware, only one in ten hunts succeed
He lets out a haunting howl
then one by one the others join in
it was as if they were trying to outdo one another
"We will not let the elements defeat us
we will all thrive and overcome
for there is hope yet
follow me and you will see"
"While our primal instincts take control
we are bound together on this earth
howl at the moon for we know of her power
she guides us through our nightly prowls"
Now simultaneously the pack cheers with confidence
There now filled with the fire of life burning inside them
Into the night they dart off in search for their survival
Forever these wild-hearted shall roam freely the land
