A Poem For Walking With Wolves
 

For our saviour – Candy Rogers:

Walking with Wolves

Invisible beginnings
No comprehension of the past
Those concerning factors
This shadow may have cast
But with my lack of direction
She was forced the pack to lead
A role against her nature
Detrimental times indeed
That anxious disposition
Her need to always guard
Though born of good intention
I have made her life so hard
I was lacking in dexterity
No fluent expertise
Devoid of the conclusions
To conciliate & appease
Then practised intervention
That one enlightened hand
To alleviate our problems
And help us understand
Diminished now her burden
Quite clear is her position
Confusing signals now removed
There’ll be no repetition
Your welcome resolution
That disquiet relief
All hopeful expectations
Surpassed beyond belief
Life is now contented
We’re no longer walking blind
Gone, those fretful episodes
Replaced by peace of mind
That invaluable contribution
Your infinite insight
And your laudable resources
Helped us overcome our plight
You are to be applauded
Thank you from one who approves
Though words cannot explain the worth
Of your Walking with Wolves
