Deep in the forest
Once long ago
A mountain had collapsed
Caused by storms and snow
The large fallen boulders
Had thereby formed
A deep dark cave
With a hard dirt floor
And one day a wolf
Was wandering around
And found the stone den
Perfect for a hound
The wolf gave a howl
Summoning his pack
And they all came through the forest
Without turning back
And so the mountain cave
Became their house
And they went out together
To hunt for grouse
They came back to the cave
And ate their prey
Then fell asleep
For the rest of the day
~*~
One spring day
When the sun was up
A wolf had given birth
To five newborn pups
The litter of pups
Could not yet see
So they stumbled and bumbled
And stepped in their pee
Two days passed
And then they could hear
Another two months
And they were hunting deer
~*~
Part of the pack
Went out one day
To try and kill
Some extra prey
But instead they came across
One of their biggest fears
A big tall creature
With weird little ears
It raised its weapon
And a loud noise rang out
And one poor wolf
Was shot in the snout
That one poor wolf
That was shot in the head
Fell to the ground
It was dead
The other wolves were scared
So they ran away
To the safety of their cave
And there they would lay
~*~
The hunter went
And told the whole town
The wolves' population
Began going down
People were hunting
Them everywhere
Until there was hardly
A wolf to spare
The people who cared
Did everything they could
But nobody stopped
Nobody would
