Abi Wolf de Redwood: Unwanted at Last

I couldn't tell you
Where I began
Where I belong
Born on an early morn
I don't remember
Why can't I remember?
I want to go home
But nobody's home.
My mother left me in this forest
A summer pup I am
I cursed pup I am
Mother didn't want me
Is there something wrong with me?
I'm so lost!
I woke on a bed of ferns
Alone in this solem glen
So I knew that tells me
I'm never be back again
Why was I scorned?
Mother hates my soul?
But know she's gone
That's one thing I know

I tried to stand
A little wobbly at first
Steady my paws
Maybe I can walk
Step by step
I leave my haven of ferns
Out into the forest...

As I walk I ponder
What is my name?
What did she call me?
But my brain was
Too young to remember
What is it?
Oh God, what was it?

My ears are folded back
I heard something
In the bushes
It shuffled
"H-Hello?" I whimpered
Nothing.
Again; "Hello?"
Something stepped out
Well, what a strange wolf!
It's small like me
But bright orange
With a bushy tail
"What a wolf you are!" I marveled
He snickered back,"I'm no wolf! You silly pup."
I am a red fox. And you are....
A red wolf?"
I swished my tail
"I guess I am."
I stepped cautiously closer.
"What's your name?"
I questioned
"My name is Moth. Your's?"
There was a pause.
I bowed my head
"I don't know.... I was abandoned..."
Moth cocked his head
"Oh, I'm sorry.....
Why don't I call you Redwood?"
"Redwood?"
I flicked my eyes up.
Moth nodded
I let my fangs show as I pulled back a grin
I barked,"I like it!"
He smiled.
"Why don't you come back
To my den?"
Moth motioned me forward
I took a couple hesitated steps
And replied, "Ok, Moth."

And I followed.
