Thank you again, Deborah, for another wonderful review. I think wolves are so misjudged, they are wonderful family animals and will protect them with their lives. Exactly what we would do. Thank you, my friend. :) Sandra xxx
Comment from BeasPeas
This is a gorgeous poem, Sandra. Wolves have such mystery about them and most of us admire them for their family structure and survival instincts, not to mention that all dogs are descended from wolves. The premise of your poem is touching as we follow the interaction between the two, with a cross-species respect for each other. Very nice indeed. Marilyn

A beautifully penned poem. That would certainly be a day to remember! I'm glad you are back to writing and feeling better. I'm doing better--not 100%, but better than I was. Take care, my friend~Debbie

Comment from Nika2016
It is a great poem and wolves are returning to the forests of the Mid-West of America...It reminds me of a white dog that looked like a wolf that befriended me when vulnerable. He walked by my side everywhere...as did my sister's dog..half wolf...
I love the story in a poem...

Thank you, Nika, animals do sense things more than humans, so I can quite understand that dog/wolf befriending you that way. How lovely that must have been. Thank you for reading my poem, and for sharing that wonderful story with me. :) Sandra xx

Sandra,
I enjoyed your well written poem. The rhymes, the smooth meter, & the story are great. The picture is perfect, too.
I respect wolves. I wish they would stay away from people who want to harm them.
Thanks for sharing. Jan

Thank you, Jan. I totally agree with you, wolves are only dangerous if they think we are a threat to their family. We are the same, but they don't go looking to kill us the way some humans go looking for a trophy. Big hugs, my friend. :) Sandra xxx

How beautiful! A duo of unexpected loveliness. I just love wolves. I used to want one, but you'd really need tons of acreage, and no close neighbors with anything alive, haha. This is a treat. Blessings...
