Eve Roper Poet Cinquain

Notes About The Poem

Barn Owl

Barn owl 
silently swoops
spreading its wings, talons 
wide with striking impact snatching
its prey.

LOL..Thanks for dropping by. Sara Eve Roper February 24, 2020 at 11:09 PM Oh, Sara, I wash my little dog close, I am afraid that one or even a barn owl will take him.

Connie Marcum Wong February 2, 2020 at 2:27 PM Their silence is stunning in majestic flight and you have captured that beauty marvelously in your lovely Cinquain Eve. I love the moving image of the owl in flight too. Aren't they gorgeous creatures! xxoo

Andrea Dietrich February 2, 2020 at 10:38 AM Very good one. You told me steel blue. It's funny but my mom and driver's license say green. However. I think steel blue is a bit more accurate although there is also a touch of green! What color are your eyes?

Tom Cunningham February 2, 2020 at 8:03 AM Love it Eve, well written and good luck. Thought that owl was going to come out of the screen lol. Tom
