Red Wolves

Red wolves
By Michelle Morris

They live in packs
And howl at the moon;
Are strong and loving -
A powerful pull...

They are needed by 
The environment -
With them, the ecosystem
Is better led...

They are a family...
Deserving of respect, love and life;
Deserving of protection,
A chance to survive and thrive...

You got that right! It's really shameful the way humans used to treat animals. Things are better today than once upon a time. I really like this one, Michelle.

Thank you, Daniel. I appreciate your support and kindness. It does break my heart when I think about how we've continued to destroy our planet and decimate our beautiful species. I love wolves. They're incredible and so necessary for our environment. Take care and enjoy your weekend. :-)
