Signs

 

Treetops begin to bow in anticipation

Of the crows coming to use them.

A wolf sings a lonely tune to the moon

Leaving the dark feeling so hollow.

Gusting winds shove nature around

In order to make things seem right.

The signs are there…

                  The devil is grinning

For no one is paying attention…

         Soon he will make his move.

Author's Note

Not much but all I can come out with right now.

Great symbolic imagery, with the crow and the wolf, as foreshadowers of the coming doom. Personally, think crows and wolves are given a bad rap, in most mythology that one can read. Wish my "not much" have the punch and power that your's do. Thank you, for sharing this cautionary poem with us.
