I am sorry that I scared you, Sir It was not my intent I'm just looking for my family, Sir I do not know where they went Have you seen my family, Sir? Do you know where they are? I am just a young pup, Sir On my own I won't get far What is that you're holding, Sir? Can it help me find my parents? I don't want to hurt you, Sir Have you no forbearance? What about my brother, Sir? And the way we used to dance? I could not fight you, Sir I never stood a chance I do not understand, Sir I am but an errant youth Why would you do this, Sir? Please tell me the truth How was I to know it, Sir? That I had gone too far? I can't see the borders, Sir I don't know where they are I would never hurt you, Sir Why are you still lying? My young life is now fading, Sir And now I lay here dying But I can't help but wonder, Sir What did I possibly do wrong? You came into my home, Sir Somewhere you did not belong I can see my mother, Sir She is in the sky up ahead I thought about staying, Sir But I think I'll go instead I'm sorry that I scared you, Sir It was not my intent But now I know the secret, Sir You do know where they went
This poem represents a hunter killing a young wolf because he was afraid. I wrote it to help fight wolf hunting, if even by only a little.
