Nightmares

arial

Be ware of the owls that keep up with you 

Your night your dreams and the other's in you

When the day breaks they take a break

While lying down they hush you to sway

Don't know where from but they hum me to play 

Embrace me hug me when I get lost in pray 

Where from where go I don't know what to say 

But they have kept me hanging to my life  as a clay

    They say owls are omens of death but I feel akin with them and have sat at my back yard table calling them and sitting with three of them around me at the table and another two on my roof. Love those noble beasts. A good poem that I related to

        An interesting write, some owls are guardian's of the night or omens of death, so having these in a nightmare could be a good or bad thing, depending on your view, enjoyed the read

            An interesting read. I find myself asking what do the owls symbolize. You can break it down for me if you want. I thouroughly enjoyed the read.

              Thankyou
              As for the owls it's metaphoric to any thing you can relate to ..a thought a chaos a thing somebody said.. a turmoil that keeps you up at night and makes you work in the noon maybe life its self is the answer ..

                  the turmoil within you, the mention of the night owl keeping in sync with your thoughts - all this has been beautifully laid down...enjoyed the read
