Cry of the Wolf

Boisterous wind full the earth
 The moon rises like a giant pearl
 Against a wall of black satin
 How harsh this callous world can be
 Noises of small creatures making this
 Ancient world seem not so cruel

 Green eyes full of emotion and fear
 Hunting and being hunted
 Beasts with a song like a dirge
 Filled with pain and enigma of life
 The weeping soul of odious poignancy
 Untamed life of the meek wolf

 Let them live in peace for tonight
 The sun bringing them an aurora
 Of colors into the lonely sky
 The ending of an old night and
 The beginning of a new day
 Here they walk the walk of life
