Feed the Awe

The hunger of a wolf cub is fed
Through the pads of her paws
And satiated mile on mile
Ley line on line of butterflies
And other curiosities.

The wonder of a child is awed
By a clear night of stars
And the howling in the wilderness
Stirring up restless fears
At a safe distance.

  1. Sigh. This is beautiful. I love the idea of the wolf cub being fed through its paws.....and the child under the night of stars. Glorious!
