THE OWL AND THE WOLF

THE OWL AND THE WOLF

As the sunset and the moon rises
Late at night by the light of the moon
You can hear the owl and the wolf.

Then the owl went on the prowl 
As wolf lets out howl with scowl
On his face as wolf stands in place
As owl flies past the wolf.

The night time skies are clear
The moon is full the stars are
Bright it is cool summer night.

As the owl flies past the eagles  
That are sleep and wolf runs. 

Through the woods past the open
Fields of wildflowers and the owl

Flies through the marsh. nature
Can be harsh and  difficult as wall.

As beautiful and as the night
Time comes to dawn and as.
 
The sun rises, gone is the owl
And the wolf deep in sleep
In their dens.

Wow greg this is a beauty my friend. Very mystical, with an eerie feel of that nocturnal life, which we as humans seldom get to witness. Penned so well. I especially enjoyed the following stanza 

“Then the owl went on the prowl 
As wolf lets out howl with scowl
On his face as wolf stands in place
As owl flies past the wolf”

The composition of your wording here is just glorious to read out loud. Rhyming within the line as well as at the ends..skilful poetic creativity. You are blooming your talent beautifully here 

Stunning ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you Gwendoline 
I too like the lines
that you mentioned
they just came to me right away
The rest of the poem was a little hard
it took me three days to write this
and at first I didn’t like it I didn’t think it would be a good poem 
but once I wrote her up here and edit it a few times it came out fine and wrote it the way it is laid out is the way I planned it
thank you for reading As a writer I know how you feel when you’re writing a poem and you get the feeling of it and you get in to the poem that you’re just right there where the poem is do you agree with me
I think all of us that are writers are like that

Absolutely Greg...that is exactly what I feel when I am in the zone so to speak. You become one with your poem and it can flood out of you. Sometimes I write instantly, look at what I wrote and wonder where it came from. It is a magical sensation and a wonderful gift to be blessed with. I think you wrote a fabulous poem here. That stanza is just so well structured 👌your writing shines my friend xx

Superb writing Greg and has an ethereal feel to it throughout and lines that conjure imagery that resonates with any reader.
There is a great harmony woven also and your writing grows from strength to strength, better and better and glorious to see and read.
You pushed nature's and its nocturnal boat out with this one in equal and good measure.
A feeling of being in their shared poetic darkness and at the same time, in a poem that shines and shines brightly
A great read and poem Greg and certainly one of your best.

Greg a pleasure and this is one of your best I have read.
Have caught up on your latest offerings but will be visiting your older posted poems later today and tonight and also tomorrow.
Just playing that eternal catch-up game.
See and read you later and forgot to mention earlier, I thoroughly enjoyed the contrast you portrayed and projected between these two nocturnal hunters.
Superb writing.

This is one hell of a nocturnal nature poem Greg .. the two main characters are both majestic creatures in their own right .. The lord of the sky and the prince of the forest are clearly masters of their own domain .. Both are certainly surrounded in myth, folklore and legend and here, just keeping an eye on each other maybe  ... An absolutely splendid poem in my opinion my friend ........................... Neville :)
