The Wolf and The Moon
208 Words
Have you ever wondered,
why the wolf howls at moon?
Is it because of a love squandered,
that had ended so soon?
/ /
The lone wolf climbs the mountain,
sits and stares at the dark sky,
waits to see the moon with pain
embedded and shouting in his cry.
/ /
The wolf, no matter the weather, waits,
Beyond the clouds wishes to glimpse
The glowing beauty that never abates,
Longing for the light to touch his lips.
/ /
The beast cries and howls all night,
wishing for the glowing moon to hear,
the sounds of his unending fight,
The moon unhearing, he sheds a tear.
/ /
Snow, wind, sun and dust came,
the wolf stayed on the same place,
Looking and seeking someone to blame,
for the distance that divides him and grace.
/ /
Whatever the form the moon may hold,
the wolf endures and waits to see.
His undying love echoes a thousand fold,
You will hear his howls wherever you be.
/ /
The moon then shows her gracious light,
showers the wolf with hope and love,
Her beauty inspires his endless fight,
Gracing him with blessings from above.
