In the Wee Hours

A strange owl passed through
our woods last night; I woke, but
did not hear my name.

  1. I'm wondering if the flight of the owl actually happened during the night before these lines were written. At 8:00 a.m. that morning, August 1, Sr. Denise Mosier OSB was killed by a drunk driver in Virginia. Perhaps the owl was calling her name, rather than Sr. Dorothy's.

  3. My recollection is that I posted it that day... Blessings on Sr. Denise and all your community.
