Biko The Woodsy Owl



Biko came down from heaven
 brought a message from Jesus to impart

 the sun comes up every morning in full view of the day
 one must be humble enough to bow the knee to pray

 I'm a messenger from the most high God
 as a beacon of like to a hurting world in need of love

 Harken onto me dear woodsmen in your strife
 I'll draw waters from heaven for you to quench your thirst

 for I was hear with the Timber Wolf basking in nature's sway
 fill my beak with fallen residue that fall from ivy dew

 Come bask in the vast expanse between space & time
 we are all chosen for a purpose from a grand design
