Owl

Owl

Spirit of the Pole Star
silhouette on the pale moon,
lamenting call of old growth
guardian of the new.

Silent satin flight
through the hushed pine,
citrine eyes for the jade jet
jewelled night.

sparkling in the starlight,
as deep as the black tarn lake,
comets of the dark sky
in eternal wake.

Snowdust rose fox
endears the still night
in red dawn Venus glow,
Apollo´s eyes set in sky and stone
upon the sleeping snow.
