Cali, the Leader of the Pack

when there is sorrow or grief,
apathy or, you just can't get off the couch,
the Leader of the Pack will guide you 
towards beauty, a natural bounty, the last
rays of sun reflecting off towering rock.
The Leader of the Pack will bound ahead of you,
looking back occasionally, tail wagging, 
veering offtrack towards interesting smells,
providing that example of looking far afield
when there is sorrow or grief, when one can only
look one direction, or the head hangs low,
the Leader of the Pack teaches us 
another way.
