bold.

charcoal highlights
smudge the canvas,
creating clouds
that block out all light.

standing tall, magnificently
protecting its miniature version.

airbrushed wings, drawn in detail
give it a rather unearthly look
that griffins would be jealous of.

feel the rocks shifting;
gazing upon the horizon
the wolf stands tall.

    oh well i guess it's alright cause it's poetry. sry that just kinda threw me off and u asked me to be more critical sry if it comes off mean


    airbrushed wings, drawn in detail
    give it a rather unearthly look
    that griffons would be jealous of.

    i love that image! a griffon is a dog though :S griffin is what you were looking for i think. although griffon kind of evolved into meaning griffin too.
    i rant a lot. sry.

    this is beautiful.

    I like the first two lines and 'airbrushed.' I wish it was less of a description of the picture, but overall, it's very good. Nice imagery and wording.
