Today I’m thankful for the owl…
A truly wonderful bird….
who reminds us we can be wise

Premium Member Whittle Owl

somewhere 
along 
its 
jagged 
route,
bitter owl 
will 
blot 
the 
sun
and 
carve 
the heart 
into 
a 
mouse

The Unimpressed Owl

Regally stationed on a branch
The wide eyed owl stared acute
His capable vision saw it all
But still he did not give a hoot!

Briefly in quick glimpses
Sitting high and safe
What is it the child asks
Our hoot owl friend, I reply.

Snowy Owl

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

Premium Member Owl

Within the night sky
Blue moon beams on silver wings
Silhouette it's hunt
Silent death in strong talons
Wings you never hear coming

an owl hoots
at the full moon

In the sombre wintry night
Down low are his foes

Indigo moon
Nestled in night clouds
Silvery light blooms
Painting night owl
In the treetops 
Ready to fly
Eager to watch dinner from the sky

Nelly the Calm Owl

All the wild critters run a race
But Nelly maintains a calm pace
So calm in her ways
Her actions display
No feathers ever ruffled out of place!

the wisdom of the owl
comes from lengths
of being perched and keeping watch
posture of a statue
int eh glow of a full moon
eyes piercing every move
