Oh Papa

I miss you so

your howl

your wolf-like looks

that I realise are my own

Them big eyes

sympathetic and wide

mum's soft red fur

and her bandana she loves so

I miss your voice

So friendly and kind

and Mum's soft tone

so wise and

the person that gets stuck in your mind

 

Oh Papa

I know I shouted

I know I ran

as far as I could go

I know I put myself in danger

and you also

I wonder who I get my stubborness from

eh Papa? I wonder who

do you still love me Papa?

Please dont say no

 

Oh Papa

I miss everyone in Nome

I miss Borris' annoying voice

and how he always knows best

remember that Papa

Listen to him

I miss Muk and Luks voice

well atleast one voice

I miss their playful nature

their snow white fur

 

Oh Papa

I howled

I know that I am part  wolf

I dont mind that my mum was a pure bred husky

That my nana was a wolf

Their beautiful

So are you and I

Our howl is music

Thats what Maru said anyway

hes my spirit guide I guessed

have you found yours?

 

Oh Papa

Your a legend where I am

well everywhere it seems

about how you saved the children of Nome

and little Rosie

I'm sure she is grateful

That you went through so much trouble for her

to save her life

Many think it was for Jenna

to make you seem kind

she knew it way before that Papa

she loved you apparently

now look where we all are

your way back home

with mum

with Rosie

I hope your happy

still yourself

that you dont think about me to much

we have our own lives now Papa

you are not so much different then I

I guess we are the same

the same kind eyes

the same grey fur

the same attitude

 

Oh Papa

I'm starting to cry

the tears are slowly dripping

dripping on to the snow

the sky is darkening

as the stars glow

as the moon shines

and the howls fill the air

the tears are starting to flow

I must stop remembering my old life now

and look ahead

to the future

 

Oh Papa

promise me one simple thing

say sorry to everyone I love

sorry to mum for leaving

leaving without saying goodbye

sorry to borris

sorry for biting his foot

sorry to Muk and Luk

sorry for leaving them alone

sorry to you

sorry for leaving

I am your baby Papa

I can promise you that

I am only older

and kind of wiser

 

Oh Papa

I now must go

the pack is calling me

they need me

Im the great white wolf's

grand daughter

did you know that?

your her son

how great that is

the howls are calling

we must leave

 

Oh Papa

maybe one day we will meet

fate will bring us closer

then we can sing

together

like wolves do

 

 

I love you Papa
