Haunting Hoots

Silent in flight Deadly in the night Haunting hoots give prey fright With prey out of sight Owls hear just right Silent in flight Talons of might at the ready to smite Deadly in the night Moon is bright Prey learn their plight Haunting hoots give prey fright 6-5-2024

' Silent in flight, ' but ' deadly in the night. ' These ' haunting hoots, ' are sneaky creatures, indeed. Such vivid imagery within, Joseph. This is so beautifully expressed and presented. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Lovely imagery and also rhymes throughout. I especially loved “ Talons of might at the ready to smite Deadly in the night” very descriptive. Pleasure reading this. Sending you light

Owls can be very vocal. They are amazing in flight. I enjoy your poem about these grand birds.
