Wolf Poems - Poems about Wolf

Alone, the dog outrides the flock, warning away the terrors of night. He sees the cheery glow of the shepherds’ fire, murmured talk and quiet laughter float past him softly on the chill autumn breeze. He longs to sit with them beside the light, sharing avidly (tongue lolling, slyly smiling) in their good-natured jokes but that is not his place: He is a dog and no man and his place...

after The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe The mist fell over the lake like a grey blanket. Only the sound similar to a ranket. The water still and lifeless, not a ripple to be seen. The air not foetid but fresh and clean. And I felt a chill from the loss forever of my Bill. Sitting in the snow, my...

It is impossible when I’m, looking out over the mountains in N. C. not to feel the influence, the presence…the spirit of the Cherokee. When I think how in this country and the world… there is a battle between people who are inhumane to one another… and those who are compassionate and kind.. up here in the mountains of North...

I'm a really hungry wolf One that’s never satiated. Your heart isn't enough I need your whole arm off I'm a truly gentle wolf, Feeding on your bounty. Maybe flesh is all I need Not the tears you cry with doubt What a lucky sheep you are, Well-fed, with plenty of wool Yet your eyes are full of fear, Fumbling blindly in the dark. "I mean no...

In the fireflies in the sky above, Gases collide with grace—no gaslighting~ They weave star-carpets that shimmer and wink, God’s lanterns flaring to soften our darkness. A fusion of hydrogen and helium nuclei~ Forms a premium spirit that sparkles, Like a naked flame through a bright hole in the dark, Yet forming galaxies remains their thrill. With self-gravity, bound as twinkling gems, Blind to...

Day is done and night now comes; flowers fade and birds sleep. Hear the wolf, he sings a love song; through the darkness deep. Hear the shadows weave their lullaby; weave a soft melody. As you dream, they sing their gentle song; sing for you and for me. As the day fades, and night begins; let your dreams arise. Watch as the starlight dances along through...

In office halls, where silhouettes loom, Beware the boss who calls you aside to manipulate, A trap awaits, where whispers seal your destiny, Keep colleague woes locked deep, an unspoken weight. Security's helping hand may hold a test, Expectation's seed, in every coin you nest, Proximity breeds contempt, a subtle art, One day's omission, and you're branded apart. Close friendships forged in workplace...

They brought them back in the Age of Dust, when crops failed and gods went quiet. With DNA teased from marrow’s crust, they rose--reborn, and violent. In glass-born labs beneath dead cities, the scientists whispered hope. “Guardians,” they said, “not beasts nor pity,” as they cut through time’s old rope. But the wolves remembered ice and blood, the hunt, the pack, the kill-- they moved...

I'm the flicker, the flame, the spark when you can't see, I'm the moonlight in the dark, a mystery. I'm the rustling in the leaves, the breeze and the trees, And maybe the wolf's howl on the wind whispers, "That's me." A long, drawn-out sound, both wild and free. My roots run deep, a Cherokee decree, And when I stomp the...

I stand here, cursed. Soughted upon a brim of hope. Yet darkness be it me for swallows. My site is blinded by my blood red soul. My hands are numb by the sharpness of my beastly nature. The wildly hairs, knitted to my’th skin. My ivory gates, beckoned me to crimson devour. I.. I am forever doom, by...

It was a strong opponent, it fought against us very well. Many of us were slaughtered before it finally went down. Again and again it tried to run, but we chased it down each time. We will never give up the hunt. We will always persevere. But this one had surprised us; it flashed its hardened steel. It cut down many of the pack and deflected...

I know you're out there we live in worlds that separate us and times that keep us in the dark I understand the ways of life we live our forlorn circumstances and accept that we're apart I realize the hopelessness we live in the fog of days gone by but still I ache for your embrace AP: 3rd place 2025 Posted on March 28, 2025...

May the healing mother give your heart peace May the forgiving father watch over you as you sleep May your spirit animal, the deer, issue you much needed comfort May your totem, the turtle, show you the way to health May your sweat lodge sisters pray that your cancer dissipates May your family dream of better times and ways to...
