Spirit of the Wolf

SPIRIT OF THE WOLF 

Spirit of the wolf 
Slow steps he walks
Fearless protector pride 
does hunt free never hides
Spirit of the wolf 
His pack he sheilds 
No ego just empathy 
Unconditional love spirit wolf 
Doth wants nothing 
Lives off the earth 
Natures trees forest far 
Peace not cunning love inside.

A Wolf Will Protect

He said to her
i will wait for you
walk a million miles
swim muddy waters
dive the highest high
take a blow and die for her.

chase a rowdy crowd for her
fight a stronger fight for her
loving every hair of her
beat the coldest blizard
guard every in round her

i am a protector
running all fields
from green to brown for her
stand in a shadow
leap for a far for her

for her is my life
i will stand tall for her
breath in all air
if danger is near
roar and scare harm away

Im the beast with loyal
oh such face
in my way i will chase
protecting a love
this mother so strong

I Rise

I rise I fall
but above all
i stand tall.

Whispering Wind

He looked long 
through the light pink sky
whispering in the wind
where did you go
gone not a trace
his heart in a race
lost without her.

All This

ALL THIS
 
By Dawn Collette Mclaughlin
 
All this is much 
all this is me 
all this i breath 
all this i need. 

inspiration a feeling inside made my thumbs type each word, not knowing where it was going, but knowing it was sent with words just blessed

Invisible so it seems 
eyes closed no vision 
dark clouds at the door 
knocking hard upon this heart 
invisible from the very start. 

Stronger than you think 
Bright like a diamond sapphires 
Not so unseen visible 
Shine yes you 
Be a rare hard to find 
Priceless.

A Piece of Me

Dawn Mclaughlin
I went to a school a few 
primary ones, coz we had to 
move, never went nursery as I 
was a poorly child, thought I 
was clever at the age of 4, 
running across a road, with 
only icecrem in mind, Moores 
was the name of a sweet shop 
ith the best cola floats, a 
sweety heaven for every child. 
Hit by a van not looking or 
seeing, in a cot as a bed in 
hospital oh my head, my foot 
it got burnt, a bit of tounge I 
bit off, although my mum said 
it was not enough, secondary 
school boi that was a shock, 
bullies galore, even the 
sicence teacher, talking in 
class, always naughty but 
never that bad, if bouncing on 
a trampoline without a teacher 
in class, but feeling proud, coz 
you know u were good, being 
called the clown of the school, 
in a whole assembly, telling 
my mum, there she gos 
stomping up the school, the 
head teachers room A nun at 
that, lied to my mother, saying 
she never said that, but a 
school in a assembly of over 
200, never in my mums life as 
ever known, a horried Nun 
could ever lie, and till that day, 
I will always say, I may be a 
clown I don't care.. I was 
brought on this earth, for a 
good reason, and if its to 
make you laugh, then I'm 
happy a job done at last xxxx

Special Gift

It was clear but so bright
there infront in eyes sight
never knowing but always felt
maybe she did and brushed it aside,
 
A thought in her mind
a sense as she walked in a room
you know that sinking in your gut
a smell she remembered long ago,
 
Nothing she could do too shake it off
awakening to a gift heaven sent free
now she knows her feel her sense
its all the special things of empathy
 
Asmile upon a lost broken soul
a warmth of love healing thee
arms wide open giving strengh
she will shine with compassionate faith.

Looking Not Seeing

LOOKING NOT SEEING 

We look but don't see
darkened steps walked,
searching never finding,
look inside 
if you feel it
you know happiness 
is what you are
what you have 
need is want
want is greed
greed we feed
of more and more
another door closed
plenty more open,
waiting a lifetime
is worth much more
for when we are ready
a light will shine
our path bright.

Everything Matters

Everything Matters
 Well at least o thought
 They don't like it
 It don't matter
 This looks funny
 It don't matter
 He broke her heart 
It don't matter
 I'm not strong
 It don't matter
 Am I loved
 Yes it matters
 Why?
 Because you are you
 That matters.

A Breath of Air

A Breath of Air

By Dawn Collette Mclaughlin

Breathing in a freezing air 
As it passes lips warming 
Till the freshness stills 
In a heated meet 
Collided entwined melts. 

Blood rushes throw his veins 
Beating drums of his heart 
Sinking in a breathless pulse 
Eyes still parallel each other. 

She surfs the tides slowly 
Embracing every ripple of this ocean 
No fear of drowning forbidden sin 
Holding the hands clinching tight 
Sometimes the soft wave 
Turns to a torrent a tidal wave.
