Winter Loneliness


Stars swirl in a midnight sky as

The forest tiptoes through darkness,

Aware only of itself.

The owls have returned.

Their voices in chorus give life to the darkness. 

A fox barks back to them in welcome, 

His winter loneliness forgotten.

    1. Thank you, aren’t owls wonderful!! I just love listening to them in the woods just behind my house. I live in a little cottage way back off the road in the woods. Lots of animal friends out here but I think my favorites are the owls. Love hearing them late at night hooting to each other!
