THE WISE OWL

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)

It has a beak like that of an hawk
Face flat like two small round plates
Be careful and be quick to dock
Not knowing what it hates

Gifted with one of the best far vision on earth
It can't see what's right in its front
But that doesn't and will never cause its death
For it is a difficult being to taunt

Be careful, for you might not hear its comings
Just like a thief in the night
Its flight fluid and quiet with wonderful wings
And you don't have time to take flight

It is a wise animal being
Used in many folk tales
Do not underestimate
The cunning of the owl
