Parliament
PARLIAMENT
A gathering of owls so wise
Can you see it in their eyes
Open wide as if in surprise
With collective intelligence
And mindset convergence
Wisdom is so easily attributed
And no sign of being inhibited
As knowledge is contributed
To add collective experience
Discovery through prurience
A chance to share information
Decisions based on summation
No evidence of any frustration
Maybe huddled to keep warm
Into a modest group they form
Such a parliament is a collective
Not a government, nor elective
Combining wisdom, is effective
Consider their hunting choices
Plans agreed among the voices
