Owl Every Night

Poem to the owl that lives just outside my window

I hear the owl every night

He sings his song of wicked sorrow

Or maybe it’s longing for tomorrow?

O, I hear the owl every night

I wish him peace with every sigh

His constant question echoes the skies

Perhaps, he longs for something more

A curse he’s witnessed within his eyes

Yes, I hear the owl every night

I wish him well because he’s free

As much as I wished I would be
