Crouching to the forest floor
With fur as silver as snow
Head and nose bent low
With strong legs of four

Eyes as blue as native lore
He lives free, without chains
Leaving his enemies slain
Strolling through the forests more

High, in the air a moon shines

And the beast offers his praise
Her light spreads across his rugged lines
Every night on the cliff he lays
Basking in her glow, so fine
Every night is where they stay

Like most of my writing, I'll just say take whatever meaning you get from this. There is no wrong answer here, please comment though.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
