7 9 12-Owls' Flight

7/9 New Words 11 Hours Ago New Words: aloof, sparse, tarnished, howling, distressing, melodic, buoyant, fluid, unrelenting

"

the buoyant, fluid screech

unrelenting , the howling

aloof to the hearing of the searchers

sparse compared to the tarnished heart

melodic in its aloof ness

remains distressing as a vehicle of the forest dawns’ approaching

I love how you explain the sound as at night that's likely all you were seeing of the owl. It's is wonderful, my ears heard what you described from their vague memory.. livened again by your words. You put the reader where you were and do not let additional knowledge of the creature (owl) tempt you into embellishing. This is well-written and the thought behind it just as magnificent. Thank you for sharing this with the community.

Another good write. I feel like I'm in the deep forest watching the black screech owl go after a field mouse.

gripping, especially as I like many a city dweller, I suppose have never seen an owl's flight, thanks

Like taking a bite out of a tiny piece of dessert worth $60. There is almost nothing in the plate, then you take a bite and the flavours are so rich you need not take another. The value is in one bite.

I appreciated the length of this poem, it was intense and rich with content. I took a journey with you in the forest chasing after an impressive creature.

What I like here is the compact, vivid form, an excellent poem, a snapshot filled with strong words - good work.

This is a most creative use of your words. They are not labored but concise and expressive.

Few could juggle those words and create such a soaring poem .. wonderful, truly wonderful .. ' , the howling ~ aloof to the hearing of the searchers '
