text

Owl: Sleep all through the day, at night capture your prey.
Mouse: Savor the sun, it's almost noon, darkness is coming soon.
Owl: In your eyes, lanterns burn bright, golden rays illuminate the night.
Mouse: Scrunched down low, trying to hear, your eyes ablaze with fear.
Owl: Flying, flying up on high swimming in dark pools of sky.
Mouse: Dark shadow hides the light not a speck of moon in sight
Owl: Dinner
Mouse: Gone
