I approached, As I normally do; Little did I know, You were there too. Hidden in a hollow hole, Away from light, You then flew away, In silent flight. Perched behind the branches, Yet still conspicuous to me, Not even a rotation, Just sitting in solitary. Our eyes met, dazed, As I moved along, Left with superstitious awe, I must continue this path, I must continue this path...headstrong.
I wrote this poem in dedication to the cute lil owl that was hidden in the newspaper box today.
In many cultures, the owl is associated with evil and/or bad omens.
Superstitious by nature, I now have a slight fear and evil sense that something bad may be near.
