And once I walked with wolves Through moonlit ghost lined woods Where whipping branches Scratched my eyes Tore fragments from my cotton dress To leave as ribbons Blowing free A trace, a mark To follow me And reaching down I felt the fur Smelt the stench of fear As death was stalking Walking near And then I ran Flying feet, a pounding beat As sentry trees Listened to this Last retreat Of walking wolves And far flung fools I joined the ghosts of silver dreams And answered calls I didn’t mean Just walking wolves And talking fools ©EMG05 |

A super metaphor Emma, this is one of your best again. I love how graphically you make the reader so aware and even feel your feelings of fear and apprehension of life and it's components. Can't choose a favourite line, I love it all, well written, many will identify, many will have felt the same at some time...I'm sure, Zy |

Thanks lb, I did wonder if wolves were a bit cliched, but they just sort of appeared in this - must be all the music I'm listeing to at the moment. Emma |
