The owl song
by @betoMod
Liner Notes
This is my song for the #PromptChain challenge (https://write.fawm.org/forums/3323). @carleybaer gave me this prompt:
a call-and-response folk song about owls
Special thanks to my partner Kim for her easter egg participation!
Lyrics
Who sees clearly in the night Hunting til the morning light?
Who? Who? Who? Who?
Who can turn their head around
And reach their prey without a sound?
Who? Who?
Who? Who?
Who flies stealthly and with grace
Not a noise and not a trace?
Who? Who?
Who? Who?
Who is precise in their prowl
The wisest bird of them all?
Who? Who?
Who? Who?

Fun! Loved the percussive beat and the ending. It was catchy! Maybe owl return to listen again. 😁

This is a creative idea. The hand claps work really well too.

AHHHH I love this so much!! The "who who" is so fun, and the ending is hilarious. Next FAWMstock or whenever we're in the same physical location again, we've got to do this one campfire-style. Great job with the prompt, it's even better than I imagined!
