The Owl

There is a story behind this song. I’ll leave it at that for now.
Moonlight shined through the trees in the woods
A barred owl called and I understood
Nocturnal presence flew silently by
I tried to relate then called back in kind
.
Over my shoulder then quickly was gone
It called from the tree top, said I’m not alone
It seemed to advise me on which way to go
There’s a lot more to life than I’ll ever know
.
I heard the owl calling, I tried to reply
The moonlight danced on the trees
All alone, I can’t explain why
The owl was calling to me
.
Perched on the branch the raptor looked wise
I felt right at home when it looked in my eyes
Stars seemed to shimmer comforting me
I shined like the forest of moonlit trees

I like the "leave it at that for now" intro! Let the listener fill in the background; you've sketched out the foreground quite nicely.

Some time back, you left me a note on a song, Kingston Recliner:Destiny . . . You know, your verse might make a nice bridge to really capture the essence of “Destiny”. I just saw it and am wondering what "Destiny" is.

Greg, this song and lyrics are amazing and completely touched my heart as silent tears slide down my cheeks. A tribute from the heart for your mom with love in each word.
