Family Tree...

My mind is young
my youth hides its roots
the sly surrounds me
yet I still bare your fruit.

Howling like wind
judging they seed
they milked me of core
and turned their back on me.

In the strength of a pack
in shade we stand guard
may we fight to the end
to protect our flesh and blood.

Foolish I was not to notice
the loyalty and the heart
blind to see my surroundings
I'm just old bark...

    Good stuff

    In this line: "and turned there back on me." I suspect you meant to say "their" instead of "There."

    This poem is adorable, I've always had a thing for wolfs and this I could maybe call a outside the box thinking. But you know, you would have stand a better chance of placing in the finalists list if you hadn't upset the judge
    It is after all, the judge who decides who will win or not.
