The Wise Old Owl

The wise old owl has come today To train a young one in the way Of all the things that it should know So he can hoot and wisely grow He'll show this one just what to do So on it's own it'll fly so true It's prey will never have a chance When it swoops down in it's death dance He'll soar the skies,he'll hide from view He'll do the things he's been taught to do Before you know it he'll be all grown He'll be teaching others that are his own But for right now he'll have to learn Of all these things til it's his turn So that when he's older he will be The wise old owl on a teaching spree
