Animal Antics

He saw an owl rolling its head;
courage turned to fear instead.

The owl suddenly started hooting;
his heart was really beating.

It flapped and flew past him;
all he did was loudly scream.

He fell to the very ground;
his face was filled with mud.

The owl then returned to the tree;
his trousers showed he had a pee.
