Wolves

In the far north

where the northern lights flicker and hiss
wolves track across the snow
the ivory landscape stretches wide
the ivory landscape unfolds far
endless white with the distant shadows
of a vast ancient Douglas Fir forest

the wolves come to a pause
noses tilted upward sniffing the air
tasting everything around them
they tip their heads skyward
where the aurora borealis shifts
in invisible solar winds
and they let forth their wild song
it rises up and mixes with the cosmos
and rains back down upon the world
the wolves howling
and soon as the night continues
the wolves will wander on

A beautiful poem and the artwork made the words come alive. Mother Nature give us so much. A wise person can see the beauty in a day and enjoy the sound of the wolves singing with joy in the night. Thank you for the excellent poem.
