"Oh, Lone Wolf"

"Oh, Lone Wolf"
Deanna Langley

Oh, Lone Wolf.
Why do you howl, so melancholy,
towards the moon so bright it illuminates
the world and reflects off of the shimmering pools made
from the tears of the sky?

Is it because you feel alone?

Oh, Lone Wolf.
Why do you weep so heavily,
creating puddles of mud,
onto the soil, so soft it mimics
clouds beneath your paws?

Is it because you feel abandoned?

Oh, Lone Wolf.
Look at the moon,
to which you sing so beautifully,
and remember the Goddess.

You are not alone.

Oh, Lone Wolf.
Look at the earth,
to which you provide and are given life,
and remember the God.

You have not been abandoned.

My dear, Lone Wolf.
Nothing lasts forever.
The birds may leave when it is there time,
But the bees and creatures of Gaea will be there to nurture her.

As will the Lord and Lady.

So, my dear, Lone Wolf.
When you feel alone,
look to the moon and howl.
And feel the Goddess's love embrace you.
Feel the God's protection shield you.

And know you will always have a home.
