Hoot of The Owl

Glowing fireflies light up the night Showing their gleams, shining so bright Moon remains hidden by dark clouds Soon clouds will pass, release the shrouds Hoot of owl echoes in the dark Astute on its perch, finds its mark Flight of the owl as fireflies glow Right to its prey, its talons show

You captured the moment so vividly Joseph. I love owls, when i was growing up there was a family of 5 living in a tree in our garden ... I've never seen one in the wild since we moved to our little Island! hugs jan xx

Hello Joe, First I want to say that Owls are some of my favorite creatures. When I read your poem I thought what a great atmospheric piece, capturing nature’s quiet drama with precision. The rhythm flows effortlessly, like the owl’s flight, sharp, intentional, and mesmerizing. A beautifully crafted moment in the night’s air! Winter Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
