Little wolf



Under the shining moon,
A gray, joyful wolf dances
with the tiny, striped bee

Gray wolf, Little wolf,
Dance for the stars little one,
Mother howls a tune


The shy pack watches
Eyes gleaming in the moonlight
Hiding in the dark


Alpha Wolf looks down, ashamed
Sister lifts her chin, entranced
Brother Wolf looks amazed

The Shining, bright night ends,
Stops dancing for the sad stars
Gray wolf, Little wolf

About this poem

This poem is a few haiku's together, I always enjoyed wolves. I once observed a wolf what looks to be dancing, so I wrote this.
