Where the Owls Roost, the Moon Shines Brightest

Where The Owls Roost, The Moon Shines Brightest Where the owls roost, the moon shines bright The old withered oak stands beaten and proud Scars, proud medals of its strength and might night owls hooting , often not so very loud Where the moonlight streams onto life below Seas move with that mighty Titan's commands In wonder, the earth watches the light show Racing, racing onward across all the lands Where the sky dances with glowing splendor The night paints shadows with joyous glee In awe, man watches stars as they surrender Moonbeams shining upon owls in ancient tree As dawn approaches the Titan slips on away Gracefully as King retreating to another view Generous to the Sun's birth of each new day Upon green grass thirsty for its morning dew!
