The sky was clear blue  
Save one angelic cloud 
Danced as the wind blew 
Amazed the snowy owl 
 
A maze of beauty  
So elaborate  
White feathers shed 
As the owl sped after it  
 
Its black beak pierced the mist 
The iced outer sphere 
As complacency set in 
It retreated out of fear 
 
What if it rains  
What if it storms 
What if the cloud changes 
Its beautiful form 
What if these feathers are too thin  
Too bright  
And too long  
 
Questioned the snowy owl 
That watched that elegant cloud  
Go til it was gone
