Hi there This is an wonderful entry into the Sky-ku Challenge. I haven’t read anything similar so a great take on the challenge.The opening line is dynamic! ‘ Onward predator’ I once lived in Samford, near Brisbane. It is the home of ‘The Powerful Owl!’ so many times I watched in awe ‘Whipping through the silent air, Lapping up its prey.’ You have a new Subscriber! With kindness and gratitude Pauline 🌸
A really elegant piece, well done! Gorgeous pic you chose to go with this one 😁
