To Follow the Owl

To Follow the Owl

A Poem by Alfred Kukitz
"

who who!

"

To Follow the Owl

Step into darkness
Follow the owl's who
Listen carefully for the sound of who
When echoes chime
Light finds its due
Your flight of the owl comes hither in you
Like a person in step
or the soul in you
You find a place that you know is you.

Short and sweet. I love the use of "you" and "who" in this piece.
Certainly relevant to an owl!

Nice writing.

Into the branches, out over the horizon, spanning across the souls of forever.

Thank you Be.

And so you shall sing, sing with the contentment of your fellow friends and let the shower of joy wash over you.

Thank you softly fall for your visit.

There is a wonderful irony in the "who" vs "hoo" that I adore.
As if the owl is querying your soul, asking you..."who are you". Then the light comes and you awaken from this dream of enlightenment.
Animals are powerful totems, seen often in dreams. I have two, a mockingbird and a ground squirrel...perhaps that's why I want to live in a hobbit hole and why I sing in the shower.
