Hidden in Plain Sight

Safe and secure with warm feathers

In the Cover of darkness a Mother Owl keeps Vigil 

over her little horned owls who sleep peaceably 

without fear... not even little owl tears... 

Wearing camouflage they blend with the foliage... 

Fluffy feathers and yellow eyes... they look 

like falling stars in the moonlight hours... 

Owls during the day can hide in plain sight.

Dear Pat, I am so fond of owls. The wisest of birds. There is something so comforting about the owl keeping guard, keeping watch at night while we are in dreamland. I love this cosy picture you paint with words of proud mother caring for her baby owlets. I have a picture of two owls perched on a branch. It's a calender picture. My cat gets up so close, mesmerised by the staring yellow eyes. This is a warm, fluffy write and I love your posted image of you dearest poet blossoming amid garden flowers. Lovely.

dearest Chris... so sweet that your Cats notice the photo of two Owls sitting on a Branch. Animals and Birds ... even Owls notice every movement. Lovely to read your extraordinary review. Be safe and well. tenderly, Pat

Owls are like women, you never know what they are thinking, they have a mystical air, look at you like they are reading your mind.
My favourite bird easily.
Enjoyed reading you Patricia

Thank you Gee... you made my poem worthwhile...
made me smile... Woodpeckers are like Men, you know what they are thinking... a little humor is good for the Soul. truly, Pat

Mothers protect their little ones...
in a forest where Grandmas rest
among the flowers...
