Poetry of a Blind Girl

Latibule

As the wolves sleep in peaceful darkness

Their howls silenced for the night

As the pups sleep soundlessly

Their blind blue eyes closed tightly

The wolf den was safe

For those of the pack

The female and her pups stay

Cramped together in the small cave

It was borrowed, nothing much

But the female felt the premature push

They had to take over the fox's land

As they welcomed new members to their band

A small cave near the water

Blind and deaf they came into the world

The wolves howled for their family

The wolves howled for their pack

Blessings from the moon shone in the night

The hope of the new generation becoming strong

New life was brought

In the dark and cold

Wet and grim

Cramped and dirty

Wolves den
