Wolf Apparition

An icy whisper and a frozen sigh

A misty white figure goes racing by

Flowing like liquid across the ivory snow

Luminous in the Arctic moon’s surreal glow

She glides along as if she’s not real

Moving gracefully as if the earth she can’t feel

Hear her mournful howl rising in the night

Her voice intermingling with the Northern Lights

A Ghost Wolf haunting the Arctic Landscape

A hunter’s bullet delivered to her this fate

She refused to leave her world behind

Now she runs, her world she can no longer find

Like the whisper of an icy wind passing by

Goes the Ghost Wolf, hear her tragic cry

Am scared of ghosts, and this is an animal ghost?? wolf by itself is scary to imagine at night and this one is even more scary to imagine.... i would faint down if i see one like this for real in my life....

Heartful. You made me remember Lotus, a wolf I once knew; she was very loyal and loving. I hear her longing howl sometimes just before sleep.
