Old Friend Owl
Agto Nugroho at Unsplash Wingspan larger than a thousand years, one loose feather swirling down to Earth, stirring salt in life’s primordial soup. Lending stealth and voice to Harriet, sheltering her in night’s fearsome grace, recognizing kindred flight for life’s sake. Mistress of the dark domain, Owl swoops in silence, guards the sleeping soul until the dawn, sun shatters cover, piercing light shines.
