The owl
By Nora McDonough
The owl the owl
With glasses as well
Sits on a tree and rings his bell Â
The owl the owl
As smart as can be
Puts down his bell falls asleep on his tree
Eavesdropping on my children as they discuss names for the imaginary friend they are having an imaginary sleepover with...
"How about Lily?"
"No, how about Lowly?"
"That's not a real name."
"How about Loma?"
"Well. How about Louie?"
"HOW ABOUT LUA?"
"Ok! Lua. Let's go to Lua's house!"
"I don't want to play this anymore."
