Sia-koenayae is his name.
He is the Grey Wolf
cleansed by the Great Spirit's fire.
A streak of blazed gold runs down his back
And streaks his tail.

About the Book
The Song of the Wolf is the first of nine songs in the Cycle of the Songs series based on characters and events in the novel SongStar: The Legend of Wandering Eagle. This
story follows the Native American convention of showing the deep wisdom
of nature and its power to embrace us with a sense for a greater
relationship with creation and our place in it. Written in the genre of
a children's book to be read in one sitting; a parent can enjoy sharing
this song with a child and fire his/her imagination. The story relates
the Lord of the Wolves whose name is Sia-koenayae as he leads
the lone pack through the night and over the mountains in their quest
for life and all that it has to offer. This story-poem is graced by 21
images that brilliantly present each verse in a vivid way.
