Wolf Poem by Jennifer Deziel

Oh, wolf out there in the woods,
Take my offering and show yourself.

Your beautiful black fur holds a secret
And your blue eyes show the amazing things you've seen.
Come out, come out of where you hide
And I promise to follow you kindly.

The poachers pass by as I protect you at will,
But I would never forget,
The way that you protected me has scarred me for life.

Tearing up the men and forcing them away,
I owe you my life.

Oh, wolf out there in the woods,
Take my offering and show yourself.
