Who? Where?
The air was filled with questions Who Who Who . Where are You? You, You…. . The woods confirm “Even to question truly is an answer”

Who.
I walk the dog on the sidewalk suburban While an owl hoots from the tree Reminding me than if I simply cross one block over, I will be in the wild. Yet even there I am tethered to You.

Who who
It was night, The stars were out, I went outside to find something lost And coming thru the darkness, To a choir of owls, Love walked into my arms.

Gates
By the garden gates High up in a tree, A wise parent was out on a limb. The nest was even higher. . Remember when looking for home, Look up.
Swoop
V Driving in the van, An owl swoops across my windshield And up onto the power lines at the end of the street. . I sit at the stop sign, Heart pounding, Watching the owl, who seems nonplussed.
