The wolves are howling through the night As a golden moon rises high Then Luna is eclipsed in flight And its hue now glows crimson bright A moon, blood red, is in the sky The wolves are howling through the night A dragon's fire invites a knight A shadow dark is passing by As Luna is eclipsed in flight A total eclipse will block its light And Luna blushes in reply The wolves are howling through the night The dragon waits, the knight to smite As gods of war are drawing nigh As Luna is eclipsed in flight Heavenly orbs aligned just right As stars now twinkle with a sigh The wolves are howling through the night As Luna is eclipsed in flight. 1-12-19

Hi Joseph, Your poem is awesome, wolves are such beautiful but rather dark animals, you portray such a perfect picture in this poem of both the moon and the wolf - loved it. A great write. Poetry wishes and hugs, Jennifer.

I love everything about the night. The stars- the moonlight. Beauty, as moments take flight. You have taken me there. Wolves howling. Nice! You paint such vivid images with your words. Simply breathtaking!! :) Brandy
