Feathered Alarm Clock
Ready or not it is time to arise
She has been busy all night and it is time to close her eyes
She lives nearby high in a tree
Her rise and sleep cycle is an alarm clock for me
She has been hunting all night and it is time to rest
She is feeding her owlets and tending to their nest
I hear them noisily demanding their food
they must be an adorable feathered brood
Then as dawn breaks in the sky
Mama owl proclaims it is time to say bye
She calmly sings her song acoustic
I awake hearing her music
This natural cycle repeats every night
She tells me it is time for me to sleep as she takes flight
