Hello all. The prompt today was to write a poem based on a story in the news. My story comes to me every night, over the oldest news broadcast available.
The Nightly Howl
Wolves howl into the night.
Scientists say they vocalize
To reinforce family bonds
And their location to apprise
Dogs howl into the night.
As fires spit flying sparks
Songs to the sky of alert
or homing herald barks
Coyotes howl into the night.
Alone or in a pack strong
Their haunting joy of life call
Can be heard all night long
Denver-ites howl into the night
Yips and yelps say We are here.
8 pm from the isolation
The collective song of Have No Fear.
