The Small Hours

Whispers sway
in aching trees,
on small hours
of night.

Standing out
beneath the star-lit sky,
watching the moon
escape the clouds.

An owl screams
silently gliding
questioning.

    This would have diffenitly placed gold with this reader. It inspires me to trot along silently one step behind you as it "takes a reader there". That owl is on the hunt for sure.
