To the Wolf - Nature's Precious Gift

by Deanna L. Byars / Nashville TN

They call you nature's majesty
So mysterious, wild and free
As I see your paw prints in the snow
I ponder on the things you know
You are so gentle and kind at heart
How could anyone tear you apart
I hear you at night howling at the moon
To let your family know you'll be home soon
As you search for food for the day
I watch your little ones hard at play
How could anyone think you are a beast
When we are so much alike even to the least
I want to show you how much I care
For I will spread the word on what we share
Your one great enemy is man
I promise to you I'll help them understand
