SPIRIT OF THE WOLF


He lies beside me, he is my guide
He comforts me, when he knows I cried
When the moon is full, his howl says it all
Although he is just an animal, he will always stand tall
He is my protector and always will be
When the enemy will approach, he will stand by me
His eyes are as calm as the blue of the sea
His soft fur is my blanket, my endless security
It gives me the warmth, as the fire inside I feel
He allows all of my inner thoughts, in time, to heal
My hopes and dreams become reality with him near
He allows me to forget the definition of fear
The legend that follows him, is only a myth
The bond that we share, makes it him I want to be with
My WOLF is my SPIRIT, that keeps me alive
Without him in my life, I have no reason to survive
I will hold him so close, and keep him forever
With Tamarack at my side, we will always be together.
