Great haiku, Sara, on that enigmatic sound in the night. In addition to hearing the owl all through the night, I can make out the moon as it rises. Your lyricism is so straightforward: it awakens and touches all of the reader's sensations.

Have to love those owls. Their hoots are terrific unless it is a screech owl then it is downright scary. Thanks for sharing this very well put together one with us. Sara K

... again, nature speaks of diversity, sometimes in a discordant harmony, a type of paradox that humanity knows so well, bearing in mind the experiences replete in the concerns of the Modernist poets ... cheers, my Poetess!
