Howling Wilderness


The howling wilderness reminds me of belated voices
ready to be heard, brewing in those once trapped in silence
A long lived message that is waiting to be told
for those who are ready to listen, ready to learn
A call as rare as a shooting star in the middle of the night
Important as the Northern Lights, colorful, meaningful
bringing life changing highlights to the path of life
The howling wilderness coming from natural instincts
Knowing just when the message will break the darkness of night
A release of imminent tension that unleashes the light
                                   - good  morning -
