014 Owl Babies

Once there were three baby owls:

Sarah and Percy and Bill.

They lived in a hole in the trunk of a tree

with their Owl Mother.

The hole and twigs and leaves and owl feathers in it.

It was their house.

One night they woke up

and their Owl Mother was GONE.

“Where’s Mummy?” asked Sarah.

“Oh my goodness!” said Percy.

“I want my mummy!” said Bill.

They baby owls thought(all owls think a lot)-

“I think she’s gone hunting.” said Sarah.

“To get us our food!” said Percy.

“I want my mummy!” said Bill.

But their Owl Mother didn’t come.

The baby owls came out of their house

and they sat on the tree and waited.

A big branch for Sarah,

a small branch for Percy,

and an old bit of ivy for Bill.

“She’ll be back.” said Sarah.

“Back soon!” said Percy.

“I want my mummy!” said Bill.

It was dark in the wood and they have to be brave,

for things moved all around them.

“She’ll bring us mice and things that are nice.” said Sarah.

“I suppose so!” said Percy.

“I want my mummy!” said Bill.

They sat and they thought(all owls think a lot)-

“I think we should all sit on my branch.” said Sarah.

And they did, all three together.

“Suppose she got lost.” said Sarah.

“Or a fox got her!” said Percy.

“I want my mummy!” said Bill.

And the baby owls closed their owl eyes

and wished their Owl Mother would come.

AND SHE CAME.

Soft and silent, she swooped through the trees

to Sarah and Percy and Bill.

“Mummy!”they cried, and they flapped and they danced,

and they bounced up and down on their branch.

“WHAT’S ALL THE FUSS?”

their Owl Mother asked.

“You knew I’d come back.”

The baby owls thought(all owls think a lot)-

“I knew it.” said Sarah.

“And I knew it!” said Percy.

“I love my mummy!” said Bill.
