This story surprises us throughout. Of course in the beginning we are certain the owl will attack the snake. But that's not what happens. In the end we are certain the owl and the snake will go off as friends and be happy. But that's not what happens.
Sometimes, you take what you can. You find friendship where you can and you accept the fact that your friends may not be perfect.
Your writing is wonderful. The story has a lyrical, fabulous (as in fable-like) quality. Thank you for sharing this with us. We appreciate that you engage with other authors.
Thank you @theinkwell 🙏I'm glad you like it😊
