Feathered Alarm Clock

Ready or not it is time to arise She has been busy all night and it is time to close her eyes She lives nearby high in a tree Her rise and sleep cycle is an alarm clock for me She has been hunting all night and it is time to rest She is feeding her owlets and tending to their nest I hear them noisily demanding their food they must be an adorable feathered brood Then as dawn breaks in the sky Mama owl proclaims it is time to say bye She calmly sings her song acoustic I awake hearing her music This natural cycle repeats every night She tells me it is time for me to sleep as she takes flight
