Lend me your primal strength and the wisdom of your glowing eyes
Teach me to stand in defense of those I love
Show me the hidden paths and the moonlit fields
Fierce spirit, walk with me in solitude
Howl with me in joy
Guard me as I move through this world
Indebted I shall be.
Garm now howls loud before Looming-cave, the bond will break, and the ravenous one run; much lore she knows, I see further ahead, of the powers’ fate, implacable, of the victory-gods.

Thank you Robert ~ your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Time is calling for us to call to our wolf and let it lead us onward.
‘The Lay of Grimnir”
19. ‘Geri and Freki, the war-worn one [Óðinn] feeds,
that Host-father [Óðinn] famed of old;
but on wine alone, weapon-fine,
Óðinn ever lives.

This made very interesting reading and is very relevant at this point in time of our lives . This message should be heard loud and clear by people as it’s a message that our Ancestors would of heard and understood . The howl of the wolf is a call to our people to be strong like the wolf and to be protector of the family and their young .
Yes, you made some excellent points that I’m glad you recognised in this piece, especially the ‘”call” for strength and protection. We can learn much by watching nature and I believe modern societies distance from nature is limiting the collective understanding of how much we have lost that our ancestors would have just known to be a part of life. We see people “take a vacation” and go to nature which is beautiful but why has it become a novelty or out of reach for many?
