A soulful howl
Though a silent night upon a snow filled land a lone howl echos forth
Upon the tundra ever white where the light of day never reaches
I stand alone lost from my pack
Howling into the darkness with only the echos to comfort me I wander forth
Ever searching for what i have lost
Praying to the ancestors to not lead me astray
I catch the scent of another so faint its hard to tell
Dark thoughts plague me
Making me wonder if I am chasing myself in circles
Trees ever green now loom before me
Growing from the endless white to bring froth a glimmer of hope
Running through the forest I cannot help but feel the past calling to me
As if I a home for the first time ever
There before me stands my pack
New pups romping about in the lush forest lands
My brothers
My sisters
My nephews
My Nieces
All there before me
It is then I know my time has gone
My own father joining me by my side
To take me back across the tundra lands
To where the world is ever green
Where the deer are plenty
My time has past
I protected my pack
And now my brother has stepped up
I turn back to run with my new pack
My old pack
Upon the plains ever green
Upon the land unending
My new home.
