Today I saw the owl for the first time.
Soaring over our house
she alighted at the top of the highest tree.
Swaying in the bay breeze
I thought she was a hawk....
then she turned her head and
I saw her snow white face.
I was struck on many levels
by
the mystery
the stillness
the otherworldiness
of her.
I saw the other side
somehow.
Myself...
