Sol bleeds at the edge of ebony skies, where inking clouds, scarlet, He slowly dies; silhouettes and shadows in veiled disguise. As Luna ascends in regal splendor, a lone wolf's wails are mournfully tender; its upturned jaws, implying surrender. Its howling summons others of its clan; an act performed before the time of man, yet no one knows when or why it began. Families stealthily hunt in the dark; for unlike packs of dogs that yelp and bark, wolves bay at the moon before they embark.

I really enjoyed this poem Émile and the triple rhymes worked effectively. It's still odd for a Brit to see the 'or' alternative to splendour etc but I appreciate that it's perfectly acceptable for the American target audience! Just 'regal' instead of 'regale' which has the sense of entertaining or amusing with talk/ entertainment etc. Best wishes Wendy

You have captured the essence of a wolf pack, Emile. The words you choose so carefully always come together in a dance that tantalises and clarifies why I love poetry.
