WOLF SONG

They are too like us.

They look at us with such

Knowledge

of us,looking

straight through us.

We cannot hide from them.

Perhaps that explains the strychnine

    and the steel traps,

Because we eat from the same plate.

And yet these, our closest fur companions,

    look at our pathways

    in such puzzlement.

They will gladly take up our fraying threads

    and reweave us with the moon

    if we will only listen

            to the singing.

A Night with a Wolf (Bayard Taylor) 
High up on the lonely mountains,
Where the wild men watched and waited;
Wolves in the forest and bears in the bush,
And I on my path belated.

The rain and the night together
Came down, and the wind came after,
Bending the props of the pine tree roof,
And snapping many a rafter.

I crept along in the darkness,
Stunned, and bruised, and blinded;
Crept to a fir with thick set boughs
And a sheltering rock behind it.

There, from the blowing and raining,
Crouching, I sought to hide me.
Something rustled; two green eyes shone;
And a wolf lay down beside me!

His wet fur pressed against me;
Each of us warmed the other;
Each of us felt, in the stormy dark,
That beast and man were brother.

And when the falling forest
No longer crashed in warning,
Each of us went from our hiding place
Forth in the wild, wet morning.

Wolf Clan  by Jim TwoFeathers

I was born of the wolf………My birth clan

But you are not near ………Hardly are you far!!!

You are fading from my sight….to a far far land

Yet I see you everywhere.

Posters here…….T shirts there!

How can we be so drawn to you.....yet fear

And not want to let you live.......near

As I walk through the wilderness of my ancestors 

I suddenly feel…

The hairs on my neck bristle…...A sudden.......tingle!

I am being watched…...my scent and yours is in the air.

I look around I know your there...watching…waiting.

What do I feel… Fear? Do I run or hold my ground.

I can only stand here and feel your presence.

You are in my head, my being, my ancient past.

I know your fear….you are the last.

I know your fear….you are the last.

The sadness in your eyes shakes me to the core….

You show me your light of understanding….dimming!!!

You turn and walk into the mist of time……as so many before.
