Wolf-Like


Folk lore tells us that
Characteristically
Lycanthropy is

To be wolf like, and
To assume the magical
Ability to change

Interesting cocept for the reader to think about. Maybe we all need a little magic sometimes to change--that is in a positive direction. Thank you for sharing your poem with us. Have a good weekend. Karen

Does that mean the ability to change from something wild to something, let's just say, tamed? Intriguing and thoughtprovoking Haiku, James and well written. Thanks for sharing and thank you for your kind comments on my poem. Best wishes, Caroline.

Quite an intriguing haiku, James. I like to think that not only wolves, but people as well, have the ability to change. (And there's a new Wolfman movie coming out starring Anthony Hopkins!) I like the way you analyze the word "lycanthropy," a new one for me. Great haiku! Love, Carolyn

The wolf is a very important animal spiritually, to be like a wolf would mean great strength of soul... you are very good at these haiku's... and thanks so much for your comment on my poem..
