This haiku was written in memory of two old friends who passed away within a couple of months of each other.

3rd Prize, Irish Haiku Society
7th International Haiku Competition, 2015
This haiku was inspired by a camping trip in Manitoba. We were on a moonlit quest to photograph northern lights, when we were alerted to the presence of a wolf in the rocky area nearby.
It was especially sweet to share news of this honour with our relatives in Ireland, and to be "the first ever Canadian prize-winner in our competition", according to the organizers.
