Wolf spirit of the night

In a dream I saw him
Wolf spirit of the night
Watching every movement
Keeping me from fright

And as I wondered aimlessly
Searching for some peace
I found a tranquil feeling
And my sorrows did release

Aurora wolf the daring
From the northern sky
Came to me within a dream
And helped my spirit fly

When I woke from this dream
I was within the light
Left with a restful feeling
From wolf spirit of the night

Your words left a feeling of promised hope, something to grasp onto in a world of so many unrealistic things. I think it was soft and tender. Written very well. I like your take on the pic.

Thanks for entering and good luck

Spiritual, Hopeful, Inspiring
What a sweet poem! When I saw the picture I just thought "sad" but you not only made it a happy poem, you fit it quite well to the picture. I loved the flow this has and the way the short lines are serious but hopeful. I also loved the way your rhymes fit together (I have a hard time rhyming without it seeming too contrived). Does this poem follow a particular form? I'm just learning--I used to just write and read poetry that sounded good to me; rhythm, meter, etc make my head spin. The background and text colors are very pretty and easy on the eyes as well. All-in-all a very pleasant read.
