Marauders In the Night

Wolves wander warily 
Warring strength in moonlight
Watching warm skinned bodies
Weakened with chilling sight 
Waging teeth, mouths water
Wakening woeful fright
Mortal wounds with death’s bite

Excellent Lonna! I was going to choose the wolf to write about but I realized how difficult it would be to come up with so many w words. I really loved your Pleiades! I am sure it will do great in the contest. Blessings xxoo
