Ghostbird<br />
They call you Burung Hantu<br />
How rare to catch a glimpse of you<br />
Guardian of the paddy field<br />
Protector of the rice yield<br />
Silent like moonlight<br />
Essential like sunlight<br />
Ghostbird<br />
Barely seen and never heard<br />
Photo and Poem By<br />
Sham Jolimie<br />
Sham Jolimie is an award-winning nature photographer that is passionate<br />
about animal wellfare, nature conservation and social justice, from near Kuala Lumpur,<br />
Malasia. In conjunction with taking striking photographs of owls and other animals as<br />
well, Sham donates to animal welfare organizations. We hope that her images inspire<br />
our readers to donate as well. She is passionate about keeping wildlife wild and not<br />
domesticating animals that are not meant to be pets. This definitely pertains to owls,<br />
although we recognize the importance of educational birds and rehabilitated birds<br />
that cannot survive in the wild.<br />
This poem about the Barn <strong>Owl</strong> is Sham’s first owl poem and the <strong>Eye</strong> is delighted to<br />
be the first to share it.!<br />
