I was touched reading Dawn's poems and wanted to share one of mine.
I love writing werewolf poetry. I know it sounds odd, but something I enjoy.
This is one of my favorites because of the imagery.
I hope you like it.
"Snow Fall"
Snow falls quietly around me The gentle air has so many scents I pick up on a living creature near me I slowly cross the snow, silently approaching my prey. He is focused on his meal, small crunching noises can be heard. I wrinkle my nose in disgust, he is feeding on the flesh of a human. I extend my talons on my right hand and crept up to his backside. I give a prayer to Gaia My hand moves swiftly downward The only sound I hear is a gurgle I feel his warm blood flowing across my talons and bathing my fur. He slumps forward and I watch the red blend in the angelic whiteness of the snow. The quiet air silently moves around me I leave to search for another prey.

I sit and ponder in this deserted church, wondering if my species is an abondimation of God Are we here to hunt man or to save them from themselves.... I have the knowledge that has been passed down through the ages. I know some of us in the different tribes wish to only see the end of human kind so that we may reign I believe my tribe wishes to live in harmony with all those around us. For this is the will of Gaia, for we are to protect her and all things related to her. I pick up a scent in the air.....the hunters are close I must find another refuge for the night..... Please give me the strength Gaia to protect those that still wish to see the end of my life.

I come to the woods to seek my serenity. The cold air allows me to become one with my surroundings. The feel of the snow crunching between my toes and fur brings exhilaration to my soul I pick up a scent on the rise and I sense a presence near me. My hearing listens to slight crunching of footsteps. I can't tell if it's the hunters that found me. My enemies are always searching for me. I quickly hunker down and extend my talons, my nose smells the presence coming closer. I stay quiet and just look and listen. The footsteps get closer and I hear a voice giving directions. My heart starts to race, the beating gets harder in my chest. I made a small snowball and hurl it as far as I can. The noise distracts the voice and the footsteps run away from me I quickly shift to the opposite direction and make a break for it. I do my best to leave light steps in the snow and put as much distance between me and the hunters. I slow down and use my senses to detect if I was followed. I give a silent prayer to Gaia and find a spot to center my serenity once more.
ladyfingers: You must have been one in a previous life.
Thank you.
Here is another one.
"Northern Lights"
I sit and watch the night sky, the moonlight plays upon the shadows of the forest of where I dwell. I sense that I will always be alone searching for others that are like me. I shake my fur and smooth out my clothing to help warm up my body from the cold. The northern lights shine high and the rainbow colors dance across the clouds. I wonder if others out there also watch what I see and ask themselves, if they will also find their extended family, so they will never be alone.
I based my ideas on a role playing game called Werewolf the Apocalypse, published by Whitewolf Publications.
They also produced Vampire the Masquerade.
Thanks again for the compliments.
Here is one more for the day:
"Concrete world"
The concrete world built by humans, embraced by us. My clan always believed that for us to survive, we must become one with our new surroundings. I walk the streets, enjoying the sunlight bouncing off of all the glass around me. The warmth that bathes me, makes me come alive. I feel the surge of life and feel the flow of energy generated by all living things around me. When I watch the humans, I sense their hopes and dreams. I also know there are others out there that watches us, seeking to end our lifeline. I always believe that survival is a dance, always twisting and turning, no end in sight. I pray to Gaia to allow me to see the next advancement of the humans. Hopefully my clan can assist them in their endeavors and bring a sense of closure and completeness for both of our races.

"Snow Fall"
Snow falls quietly around me
The gentle air has so many scents
I pick up on a living creature near me
I slowly cross the snow, silently approaching my prey.
He is focused on his meal, small crunching noises
can be heard.
I wrinkle my nose in disgust, he is feeding on the flesh
of a human.
I extend my talons on my right hand and crept up to his
backside.
I give a prayer to Gaia
My hand moves swiftly downward
The only sound I hear is a gurgle
I feel his warm blood flowing across my talons and bathing
my fur.
He slumps forward and I watch the red blend in the
angelic whiteness of the snow.
The quiet air silently moves around me
I leave to search for another prey.
