The Night We Heard The Wolves Howl

I took his little hand &
led him to the back porch.
Moon shining bright -
frothy, misty sheen of
of clouds floating
whimsically.

Both in awe
Standing in our moment
we heard the call.
Not just one.
We heard them all.

He looked up at me
smiling as bright as the
lunar glow
He reared back his head
letting out a throaty
howl.
I
Letting out my own.

*Technically, they were coyotes but my son & I both agree that coyotes are part of the wolf family.
