Night Of The Owls

Out there in the misty nighttime forest
Somewhere hidden beyond
In the valley of frosted Spruce trees
An owl is calling all night long

Peering out my window
The full moon shining down
In the upside down moon shadows
I seek out the perch of this haunting owl

Hidden in the moon dappled forest
More owls are calling out into the night
In the moon bright forest I seek them out
Moon slivered I can see their big round eyes

I speak softly to the many calling owls
I pretend I know each one by name
It's magical here in this white frosted forest
I feel the possibility of anything and everything

Fantasy or just plain whimsical
I talk to the owls haunting this wild place
The forest calls and the night is magical
With dawn's arrival this enchanted night is swept away

Oh, this is wonderful, very delightful. The imagery of the owls in the frost forest is very realistic and I can just imagine the whole scene and you wandering through. Then the enchantment part happens, talking to the owls, seeing them in the trees and such. Darn the dawn for chasing all this magic away!

Can feel such a dark movement in this night's music... yes, magical it is... and how dawn can bring hope or wash away the mysteries of night's dreamish world.
