She Looks
she looks out into the night, listening to the sounds
she seeks to find her place
her wildness clawing at her very being
bidding her to break the chains that weigh her down
to leave behind the insanity of the world
and find the solitude and peace she longs for
to run the paths to smell the air
to see the mountains and the trees
to play in the clear blue waters
finding the place called home
reveling in the playful pups
smiling at the ever busy sisters
laughing at the brothers building their strength
sensing the watchful eyes of the One
that guides them to their sanctuary
listening to sounds alert to any danger
ever ready to strike to protect with her all
content in her sight satisfied with her vision
she once again lays down near the edge
she closes her eyes and sleeps
