Wilderness Calling

The untouched splendor of the vast terrain forest has
kept my heart here, roots deeply embedded into my soul, 
you have been gone for many moons, and I miss the days
when the winds of feral grazed upon our silvery coats

When the moon sleeps to its side, I embrace your image
while silver streams seep into the verge of the night
O, but hear my heart crying out into the eve of soft blue
and hear my cries 'come home now, my brother, come home.'

Though I may be windswept, my heart is barren without
you, and I cry before the heart of the moon. calling for you
to leave all transience behind. We shall go where the winds
of puerile blow, where tamed hearts shall nay ever roam

When the moon rises over hills of nightfall, where always
I come before the soft glow of the moon, rising my bay
where the winds of feral caper through my silvery coat. O
but hear my cries, 'come home now, my brother, come home’

Blue Sky - This is a lyric melody of soul messaging Mother Earth's Spirit. You have not lost your touch to caress nature's embrace.

It's wonderful to read you again!

Hi Rena, you know I have always enjoyed the "call of wilderness" in your poems. this one no exception... seems as if brother wolf needs to get his tail home... ;0)

too much of humanity has lost it's way, no longer hears the moon's call and feels the winds touch and hardly anyone remembers the dances done to honor our mother's wilderness... but your poem reminds us and nudges us to look deeper and to understand the beauty above and below... good to read you again Rena.. ~~redzone
