Still Dark Waters

A lone wolf stands below the mountain range
His reflection upon the dark water of the still lake

Clouds move slowly, uncovering a pale white moon
Moonshine down upon the dark water of the still lake

Sorrowful howl reaches into the night sky
Still run the dark waters of the lake

Distant echoes of the howl though the mountains
Lone wolf gazes upon dark water of the still lake

A different echo makes him stand alert and aware
A new reflection appears in the dark water of the still lake

A she wolf approaches slowly at first
Along the bank of the dark still lake

Greeting nuzzles, licks and sniffs
Two wolves lie next to the dark water of the still lake
