Snowy Owl

White bright
Yellow eye
Snowy owl
Tumbling in 
The Arctic wind
Stiff claws 
Clamping down,
Through the 
Seagull's heart, again

An owl vs a seagull is quite an interesting conflict, Gregory. Great imagery; the reader can see this conquest clearly through your words. Wishing you happy holidays filled with peace and love, Carolyn
