Lonely traveller walking through mist,
weary are your steps, heavy is your heart.
Padding silently, just out of view,
the black shuck shadows your step.

Sniffing danger on the wind,
enveloping clinging fog, chills.
Shaggy coat, glowing eyes,
large paws swiftly move through dusk.

Desolate moors he silently and
solitary haunts, death on his tail.
Feel the tingle of hairs, he is there,
his breath, hot with feral vitality.

Be not afraid, though he stands to your shoulder,
no harm will befall you.
Noislessly he will vanish,
once the lonely traveller is safely home.

Love comforteth like sunshine after rain. (William Shakespeare.)
