The Owl

An Owl sits high up in a tree

Looking so forlorn

Icicles hang down from the branches

His hat and scarf well worn

The Snow is falling relentlessly

Feet are almost frozen to the bone

His beady eyes glare constantly

As he braves the storm alone

His thoughts return to his old barn home

Which is not so far away

So off he flies through the forest so white

To return another day

As the snow falls on his feathers

He shakes to clean

Back to his safe abode high up in the barn

To wait for more clement weather
