Crying Wolf.

 

 

CRYING WOLF.

 

Eerie howling, wolf-hound calling,
amber eyes alight.
Spirit of the steepest mountain
stealthy pads the night.

 

Distant hunting, litters growing,
feral parents proud.
Livestock missing, farmers arming,
thieving disallowed.

 

Tortured trappings, party shootings,
stalkings after dark.
Sightings now of wolf packs only
in a Nature Park.

 

Pressured lifestyle, fragile living,
species on the wane,
Now mere myth and legend honour
canine of wild fame.
