The owl in the tree.
The owl in the tree.
I sit and listen under the tree and see the moon light and smell the moonlight air, I can hear a howl from an owl from nobody knows where. He yells out his howl, but I'm the only one there. He sits up in the old oak tree beneath the moon that shines so bright. There is no one else in his sights. Why does he sit there and howl all night? Does he do it out of spite, or is it for me to visit him in the tree? The sun rises, and he drops a key. Then he flies off from the tree. It's a key I lost a long time ago; it's to your heart now, I know. I still love you I just wanted to let you know.
About this poem
This poem was about me and my friend the owl. He comes a lot at nights and visits me. I just wish he had a key.
