Her spirit one with mother earth
her beast prowls the mystic realm,
from long ago and deep beneath
her strength is most profound.
With spirit of the wolf so wise
she moves in gentle wisdom,
protection from the ancient ones
bound forever in conjoined cloak.
Look deep within the eyes and see
the spirit of the beast,
she's roamed the earth for eons
giving enlightenment to generations.
By day appearing in a form
her knowledge she can teach,
by night she roams as insight grows
of a nation steeped in drums of unity.
