Sands of Time...
She wonders what boundaries truly contain the sands of time,
as muscular, yet soft furry paws pad quietly towards her through the cool night air.
Was it a distant past... or perhaps some distant future vision,
that brings her to the precipice looking out over the vast layers of countless lifetimes.
And the northern wolf, a warrior, touched forever by her beauty and wisdom,
basks in the glow of their union... one that defies human understanding.
How many times have they traveled together, seeking that which cannot be voiced in words...
yet always finding the answers in the depths of each other's eyes.
And now, as she stands facing the knowledge of what lies before her,
she knows with certainty that he will truly protect her from the endless night.
A knowledge too, that one day he shall humbly call out her secret name,
and together they shall pass into the Eternities, nevermore troubled by the Sands of Time...
