A Moon Wolf’s Tale
Adventure lurks
In the still of the night
Hidden beneath that silver moon light
The cry of the animals
Wild and the tame
Awaiting the return of
Moon wolf for his game.
He has lived his life
Protecting the others
In the still of the night
He is unlike his brothers
His story as told
Was a change in his ways
A Moon wolf never hated
Hidden in night’s maze.
The birds did whisper
About that fateful night
When the creatures all shuddered
From a terrible fight
The men came with guns and pistols for war
Chasing the woman and a little baby boy.
As they cornered her and the lad
Near the caves by the tree
With nowhere to run
No hope to flee
Our jumped a moon wolf
With his eyes on some prey
The woman and the child he never did slay.
Running quite afraid,
they dropped guns and did flee
Leaving the two souls
At the caves by the tree.
The legend of the night
And the lives that were saved
Changed the heart of the Moon wolf
Till he entered his grave.
He is the seer of safety
Protection of the weak
A powerful vision
To all those who seek
An adventure in the wild
From a challenging week.
Outdoors may be strange
If you are unaware
And yes, there are many things of which you
must fear
But have courage and know
Its never all as it seems
There is a Moon Wolf just waiting
In the night as you dream.
