walking through the woods
feeling the soft give to the forest floor
even though it snowed 4 inches last night
looked up to watch snow plopping from trees above
there you were
a great grey owl
looking into my eyes

looking into my eyes
a calm majestic being
sitting at the meadow's edge
listening
watching
waiting
so perfect for Halloween
and
Samhain
lovely celebrations to one and all
