There once was an owl named Argonne
That read a lot of King Arthur and Avalon
Of Merlin & the sword of Power
Of Camelot, and all the square
Knights, who sat 'round when Art call'd upon!

Mused the owl roosting on a pine tree shoot,
"My colleagues think I'm not very astute,
But I wisely perch in pines,
Not on hot transmission lines!
If they singe their butts I don't give a hoot!"

Once long ago on a school visit to the zoo
My little one had just begun elementary school
High up on a tree branch sat a lonely owl
With his huge eyes shut, he could pass for any old fowl
Suddenly, he opened them and questioned, “Who? Who?”

sammy scampered up a tree

an old owl roosted
on sams precarious knee.

Hoot EOwl Esq.
By
Tom Wright
A scholarly old owl in the tree sat high,
Calling out to all, is any wiser than I?
He’d read his book,
From his overlook,
Whoo whoo ha hoo, was his erie cry.

You can never fool this mangy old dude
A wise old owl you should never pooh pooh
Can recite the alphabet
Backwards no sweat
Standing in line at MacDonald's totally nude

I once saw a bear on the prowl
Who, one night encountered an owl
The owl said "Who"
The Bear answered "Pooh"
I knew something smelled a bit fowl

Bogg the steely bug took a smart drug
Played silly buggers in Biggie’s rug
Biggie screeched like owl
Hey,No fare, no fowl
Big Bogg made Biggie a real humbug

The argument
There was an owl and a pussy cat
had an argument over a rat
The cat called him a fart
The owl called her a tart
the green pea boat didn't sail, so that's that!

You are my beguiling barn owl
You make me to scream and howl
and when your aloof
i don't give it a hoot
and i long to caress your soft jowls!

He'd be the only one wide awake under his roof,
writing poems and posting them all on poetry soup,
munching loudly on a midnight snack,
wife about to give powerful smack,
leaving behind his crumbs and not giving an owls hoot.

An owl is a curious bird
Whose hooting you've probably heard.
It's deemed to be wise
Has perfect disguise
And eyes of a size quite absurd.

Donald Trump was as stumped as a man can be
"How could LeBron James be anything like me?"
A wise old owl
Commenced to howl
"Quite different branches grow on the same tree!"

Night air seeping in is anything but serene,
hear gossip through my window screen,
mockingbird mocks a few,
barn owl repeats who,
bird talk just like human beings!

Were Wise Old Owl
What if I were a wise old owl?
And on face you could find a scowl
Never would give a hoot
At who I had to boot
Then give them a crying towel.

I should not have looked from my good luck spot
to see dirty things that bring the eyes rot,
so while my eyes are burning
my head's completely turning...
can't stand humans in such a twisted knot!

All the wild critters run a race
But Nelly maintains a calm pace
So calm in her ways
Her actions display
No feathers ever ruffled out of place!

He was a cat amongst the pigeons
And just like the owl
Instead of saying who-whoo!
Just said MEOW

There once was an owl name of Lash.
He hid all his toys in the trash.
Along came a crow
He stopped and said “whoa!”
And stole every bit of the cache.

Process With Most Progress
We must be prepared to accept process,
Which will result in the most progress;
A wise old owl
Said root canal;
After you already have had an abscess.
