Owly Neighbor
For years, he’s kept us awake at night with his hooting and hollering.
Twice, shrouded in the grey light of early morning, I’ve spied him flying across the road.
Yesterday morning, he was on a fencepost beside the gate, in the mood for a photo shoot.
Today, let’s give a hearty, hi-howdy to to my owly, reclusive, magnificent neighbor.
May your days be many and your mouse harvest mighty, sly friend!
