A wolf stalkes the morning
His senses keen
A serpent suns itself
It’s defense offensive yet unseen

Should a wolf be bit
No harm should fall
Just a scratch of the tooth
The wolf detaches indifferent and warm

Respect of all but no need to take warn
How does the wolf approach the serpent
With caution and respect
But if the serpent should strike

In the wolf’s mouth, it finds its neck
Immune from the venom the wolf may be
Immune from the teeth of the wolf
A serpent never will be.
