For Wolves
Today, the wolf represents all that which is wild and free.
They call us to the last retreats of our vanishing wilderness,
where their songs carry on the wind, a wild defiant sorrow.
Roaming where few men dare, wolves pierce the silence
with their powerful song. The howl begins low and melodious.
The sound is lonely, haunting, surreal; as if the voices of our
ancestors were howling through the canyons.
Soon, the ridges resound with the chorus of a wolf pack
on the prowl. Then, as the last note descends, it is quiet,
as the winds whisper like spirits of ancient times.
Remember that sound and treasure it.
It is as old as time, wild as the wind and as poetic as
moonlight on snow. It is the trademark of the wolf.
