Swiftcurrent Creek Here I am

The sun rose and it's pearly pink hue alighted on the wolf that lay underneath the shade tree. Green eyes of deepest hue opened up and he lay there looking around. Lifting large head he stretched, and swished his tail across the ground. He stood and stretched much like a cat, his rump in the air and his tongue lolling out. Turning his neck one way and then another he moved swiftly long legs and large paws tearing up the ground in purposeful strides as he headed for the borders.

He missed his Kiva, but for once the pain wasn't so sharp and the memories so painful. It was a dulling feeling, he supposed this would happen with time, but he knew that he still missed her more than he would ever admit.
