Thi is an excellent poem for the contest. You should do well with the homage you paid to owls. They are indeed mysterious creatures that want nothing more than their daily fare. Well done.

A wonderful poem about owls. You rhymed very well throughout the poem. How is your weather? It has been cold and rainy in Ogden, Utah. Keep smiling. :)

I was driving home from work one night and a white owl flew in front of my car and flew to a branch of a tree, I felt honored as it sat there on the branch at an angle from car. It stayed there for about 2 minutes just communing with me. It was lovely.

    Owls are lovely and mysterious, I love them. They have amazing wing spans for their size. Thanks so much for this nice review and for sharing your owl story. :)

This poem and these stanzas pay a beautiful tribute to this mysterious bird and its many attributes - the opening line is superb as it sets the scene for this nocturnal bird

Great competition for the contest. I like what you did
here. It shows you can describe and rhyme and give a hoot of what others say.
Best of luck in the contest.

First, love a poem that rhymes. Poetry is not my strong suit so I admire those who are poets. Also appreciate the positive tone of this poem. Others I read were not so positive. The owl is indeed a stately bird to be admired. Great job!

This is a lovely poem. Your rhyme scheme is excellent and the rhythm is as well. Your well chosen words paint a vivid picture of the events. I have always liked owls and find them quite majestic. It is amazing that they are silent fliers and they also mate for life. Good luck in the contest.

    You are welcome. I couldn't seem to come up with anything to do with owls this time.

Hi Sharon. I really like how you take up for the stately Owl in this lovely rhyming verse. Great development of systematic themes in each stanza that support your defense of this bird. Well done and good luck.

One of my favorite birds. Good job in holding those four line rhymes. "The Owl and the Fox" is one of my favorite poems. I will post it sometime in the future.
