The Silent Owl

how loud is its silence

Tonight as evening falls, an owl
Heads out for his evening's foray.
Elusive in his flight, taking cover in the

Shadows.
It follows his prey, its
Lone objective is to feed, to
Eat.
Nothing else matters now, just hitting
The goal.

Object of his preying spotted, the owl
Wheels around midair -
Landing on the meal in victory.
