The Wolf
We had two dogs that were part wolf when I was growing up. We, five kids, loved them so much that when the 2nd one got hit by a car, trying to keep up with us, my mom vowed “No more pets!” She could’t take our crying any longer.
We loved both those dogs more than we loved members of our family!
P.S. I wanted to let you know that it looks like we have worked it out so we can still take our trip back to NY and my husband be able to play for my nephew’s wedding. Angelo couldn’t stand to hear about anyone else’s crying over us not being there.
Sherrie Miranda’s historically based, coming of age, Adventure novel “Secrets & Lies in El Salvador” is about an American girl in war-torn El Salvador: http://tinyurl.com/klxbt4y
Her husband made a video for her novel. He wrote the song too:

My yellow eyes stare at you from the dark.
My crinkled snout hides my furious teeth,
While my mouth waters
At the very smell of you.
I’m lurking, I’m waiting.
Preying on your animals
Preying on your children
Preying on you.
That’s who you want me to be.
Your stories write me big and bad,
And you have made up your mind.
Turn around, man.
Turn around and see.
Look at your reflection.
Because the ferocious beast
Pulling the trigger is you,
And not me.
