The moon hung in the sky
Above the quite world
The cold breeze shuffles the leaves
And whispers in my ear
Walking along the woods
A growl so soft is spoken
A coyote's eyes so bright
Shine brighter than the stars
I smile and whisper back
Hello there brother
He growled again but softer
As I softly sang to him
He slowly backed away
Knowing he was in no danger
I say goodbye to the creature
And go along my way
I never forgot that coyote
That I saw that day
