Darkness around me and nothing more,
My body curls up to the warm blazing flames.
The wind purred softly in my ear,
The night still was playing its games.
Alone in the woods and full of fear,
With nothing but my gun and survival gear.
I felt something was very near,
But the flames, was all I could hear.
I heard a startling high pitch noise;
I quickly jumped to my feet in surprise.
I glanced around, my body tense;
I held my gun up in defense.
I heard the scary noise again;
I saw the creature and shook my head.
It was only an owl;
The harmless creature had filled me with much dread.
I chuckled and sat back down, upon the ground,
I wish my heart would stop its beating pound.
I glanced around, across the small fire;
I saw two golden eyes filled with a burning desire.
The creature of the eyes stepped towards me,
It was a wolf, a woodland creature running free.
I put my gun down on my leg and arm,
No way could I bring this creature any harm.
As I watched the graceful animal just stand still,
I blinked and opened my eyes again.
To my surprise it was gone just as it came,
I felt as though something missing was replaced,
In my heart
…within.
