One of almost 90 poems to read over and over again
MAJESTIC
AND STRONG
You stand so tall
So strong
So majestic
But there is a look in your eyes
Sadness
Not a note of happiness
There in the near distance
A passed loved one
Looking
Just as glum
Blue in his face
The night so gloomy
Flickering stars
An a eerie, eerie
Willowing
Quivering, shivering
Mystical
Feeling
The moon and the stars
Glistening
You stand listening
For their familiar voices
Their singing
Their laughing
Their howling
Calling voices
But there is nothing
Except for the hollow sound
One day you will be there
With your own kith and kin
But this day is not over
There is a new day ahead
With the ones that now live
Your pack
You’re the leader
Keeping them safe from harm
From this day on
