Spotting a Snowy Owl…
/Spotting a Snowy Owl in Southern California
What drove you to fly south
Did you face a struggle to survive
In your homeland
The blizzard should not be the reason
As you bear your ancestors’ genes
To survive on a land with a coat of snow
Was the scarcity of food source
That forced you to move away
Where do you hail from
North Pole or Siberia
Where artic foxes and ermines
Roam over tundra
Snatching away your food
Will you be able to find
Your way back home
Where you can meet a mate
Or you will overcome your loneliness
And stay in this southern land
