I Know What It Was

I Know What It Was

They said it was just an owl in the tree

an owl in the tree

but they didn't fool me!

I saw teeth

not a beak,

red eyes

not gold,

and I wont be told it was only fluff and feathers

round its throat

it was a collar

and those weren't wings

but silky folds

of black,black cloak

That was no

Too-wit, too woo

I heard

It was

I’ll get you - ou!
