Keep the Peace
On a windless night
One hears leaves rustling
Silhouettes in dim light
The stars cease twinkling
Birds challenge a fight
Wise Owl starts hooting
Wings flapping with might
Can’t tell who’s winning
Beaks shut really tight
Drags on till morning
What a startling sight
They keep bantering
On the poor birds’ plight
It is so daunting
There’s no wrong or right
Are they still battling?
Is it a fight or flight?
