Coyotes off in the distance
Hear them howl
They are very persistent
And into something foul
Sending in the bait dog
To capture their next meal
Running fast, and tripped over a log
Get up, because I know the deal
The wind picks up
Coyotes get a scent
Run up on the pup
He kicks them and leaves a dent
The owl joins in and hoots
My dog runs away
The owl is in cahoots
My dog doesn’t want to play
The coyotes howl, because of a kill
The creatures of the night know the deal
The owl has had his fill
He doesn’t want to become the next meal
Quiet is the night
Creatures go to sleep
The coyotes end the fight
The quiet of the night runs deep
