Where Wolves Have Slept (JM) (expanded version)

 (Joseph MacRae, 2003)


Where Wolves Have Slept

(Alaska journal, Noyes Island 1993)



How welcome is dawn on a day off! To walk this beach, the dew still fresh. To find this meadow that overlooks. Wolf tracks that head out. Lively deer hearts spring everywhere -- except in two bowls, bedded down. The ground, it is still warm.



Morning Wakens --

where wolves have slept. A tuft of fur

left in wild deer hearts.
