Owl In the Dark Night

Owl in the dark night

Dark Owl
That's how I call
on an Owl
who loved the darkness

Almost every night
he greeted  me 
diligently
with his unique voice

carved a longing
in my heart
for his visit

Will you attend
tonight

I miss your gaze
in the dark night

give a spirit
to meet
dawn
auspiciously

even if 
you were negligent
or forget
to visit me

i’ll hug your gaze
along my dream

Loved the last phrase, hug your gaze along my dream. That is so deep, sad, and beautiful. You are a very talented Lady. Love Terry a 7 >> and FAVE.
