At the age of 6, I had dreams about following a tiger through the woods. Later, when I was 9, I was being chased by a stranger on my way to school that led me to skip school. A friend took me to visit, a old and wise Indian woman with long braided hair, who lived alone in a cabin. I sat on the porch steps, when she told me the tiger was my higher spiritual guide, my protector. I must not let anyone stop me as I run towards my destiny like a 'Wild Beauty'. My dreams of the tiger and the old wise Indian woman inspired me to write this poem 'Wild Beauty' and because, I was saved that day.
