In the Woods

In the woods the shadows fade

as the sun falls away

the darkness hides the trees inside

the woods come alive.



Hear the sounds the owls make

as they hunt for their sake.



Scattering feet running to hide

little mice trying to fly

the owls are hungry,its their time

to eat and scare the shadows inside.



Now the sun is opening up

the darkness fades and the light shines

the owls sleep and all is safe

for the mice are scampering all around

pleased to know their safe and sound.
