Spirit of the Wolf

In gleaming drifts of white Silent paws upon the land Hunters, fierce and loyal Long before arrival of man She hunted to survive Raised her pups to be free Inside the wolf a women's spirit Wild, as she was meant to be With amber eyes she watches Man's attempt to rid the land Of everything he can't control Seeking to manipulate or demand She sees the fences to keep them out The traps to cruelly kill her kind Wonders why the spirit of the wolf Threatens so much in this time For in the past it wasn't this way Man and wolf had shared the wild Each learning from the other Like a mother and a beloved child She raises sorrowful amber eyes To beseech the Moon God above Protect the spirit of the wolf And the world she has come to love
