before dawn
along mineral ridge
behind wolf lodge
the spirits of warriors
hunt the white tail
and wild turkeybefore dawn
along mineral ridge
behind wolf lodge
spirits of warriors
hunt white tail,
wild turkey

red eyes
of old one
searches darkness
tracking silent steps,
muledeer, bear
footprintless leads

pale skined
we follow
breathless we run
ghosts in night colors
between fur soldiers
that sleep standing

morning's eagle cry
circles sound
opens sky
daylight permitted
to be our guide
the old one

invisible now

The spirits from the past become real with your words.  A very interesting poem.

Cpat, thank you for the reviews, I appreciate them much

Martie, it is about a legend in Idaho the spirit warrior that leaves tracks, but never takes the game.  Thank you for the read lady.

My editorial mind took out all of the articles, leaving the bare essentials behind...I know you do not ask for a critique, but if you someday did so...it makes an astounding read that much more breathless....thank you for this....
