I see him, watching me.

His eyes glow as the setting sun

Flashes its purple hues

Only to reflect green.

His black nose twitches,

Testing the forest air around him

Shifting his gaze momentarily

But, directly, back to me.

His fur lifts slightly 

In the little breeze;

All brown and black and white:

So beautiful.

His maw is parted open

As if he is laughing

At some secret joke

That I wish I knew.

If only I knew your wisdom, and serenity...

Don't leave, Wolf! I think with anguish

But as soon as I do, he's gone,

On some mysterious mission,

And I am left, wishing 

I could have gone with him.
