Dream 2

by Cat Sellers

Two wolves magnificent
Both male
Big beautiful powerful
Their coats thick
The color of cream
The tips of the hair
Dipped in silver
At times
Dipped in gold
Fierce
I felt uneasy
Sensing their tension
Then became aware
What they were claiming
As theirs
Was a bird of prey
Fallen
Prey to both of them
The wolves moved
Closer
Leaving the bird
Now less anxious
Touching
Fur
Soft as silk
Pushing up against me
Power of Life
I never forget
Their eyes
