Lonewolf Of Night

   Wake up in the light of dawn.
  Hungry and alone been so many
  days. Smell of maple sapp and
  mildew. Drink some water to
  quench my thirst from a nearby
  spring.

   Observant eyes wide open. Been
 through so many rough winters and
 cold nights. Beneath a pile of rocks
 covered in tree branches.

   Surviving with the will to go on.
 To what predator or threat disturbes
 my path. Never giving up, holding my
 head high. Family and pride on my
 mind. Even though I stray away from
 the pack. I rely on my senses.

 
   A Lonewolf I am. I look towards the
many full moons. The millions of leaves
at the end of fall to cover me in the dead
of winter. Keep close to the light of the
moon. To guide me and watch my back.

  Instincts are in a level high. Feel the
movement of the earth beneath my feet.
Pause to take a deep breath by the bark
of a tree. Nature will throw obstacles
to test the color of my hide. Try to lure me
away.

     Lone Wolf, shadow of the night.
 Amber eyes full of light. Give strength to
 me. Trust in myself don't trust no one.
  Although hunger and cold try to slow
 me down. I will find warmth in my
 surroundings. Shelter in the Woods.
 The woods is my home.

   
  I do not fear the dark. In darkness is
when I do my best. I will blend in to my
environment. Put my ear to the ground.
 If the odds are against me I will keep
 fighting to my last breath.

 Lonewolf of Night.
