Haiku: Spirit of Vitality

a black whippet in a winter jacket flying across the sands
a smiling blue and white whippet leaping across a beach

dragon’s leap
fuelling the inner fire
this winter

  1. ‘Call of the Wild’ And Yes
    ‘The Spirit of Vitality’ that
    Life Free Balancing With Dragon
    Shadow Wild and Light of New and Old Love
    Brings for it is this Fire Breathing Inside that
    Carries us on for Survival
    And Love at Oldest
    Evolution
    of our Minds
    And Bodies Now
    in Balance Where Shadow
    And Light Plays Freely where
    All of Human Potentials And other
    Animal Potentials Dance And Sing Freer Now..
    SMiLes.. dVerse had a prompt on ‘Wild’ Earlier in
    the Week and this may be as close as i get to it..
    i was touched so much by Jack London’s Book ‘the
    Call of the Wild When Young’ For it is true We too have
    A
    Wolf
    Spirit
    Within as
    Wild Wolves
    Do Love Freely
    When they Work
    Together as a Pack..:)
