The Song that passes On

By Sam (Aljan) copyright 2005

            The wolf’s howl that sounds through the night is heard and reacted in many different ways

            Some freeze

            Others listen

            Many dwell in fear

            But some others listen to their brother’s song

            For it is they who will pass on his song when he is finished

            He sings of love

            He sings of hatred

            He sings of sorrow

            He sings for the freedom of his people

            He sings for peace in the world

            He sings for the survival of his people

            As his song echoes into the distance

            He perks his ears for a moment

            Then all around him his song echoes all around

            And is carried up and up into the air

            And beyond the distant hills
