Mother Wolf

I felt the dark grainy ground
beneath me, with palms and hind,
smooth, firm. The breeze chilled
my sheepish coat, pursuing me
towards the inclined dark Maple
I instinctively knew, that my mother
had bore me to so many times before.
She sat lingering at the base in concealment,
her eyes stalking me
from the shade cast about her.
The merciless air cornered me against
the bitter cold and rough walls,
while I scraped at the holes in the
gray infant barrier that kept me from
my mother, along with other lambs.
She leapt forward,
face still hidden from my sight,
until, over the separator she bounded
and panic overtakes me,
I felt as a lamb separated from the fold,
with the predator concealed,
yet known.
Her once nurturing face was absent
and to my vision sprang
the ravenous likeness of the wolf,
dark brown grisly fur which masked
a long sinister snout
embedded with pink stained canines.
