Maybe it was his way of saying goodbye to me(sad poem)

I will never forget that night
in the month of June
when my father died
But before he passed away
I still remember the white owl flying over the trees
as I was standing underneath
the stars next to the mountains early one night
And in my life time I had never seen
a white owl cross my path before
But this was an unusual experience
Because it crossed my path twice
in one night
To this day I have been wondering
if it was a spiritual sign of things to come
or a warning sign to prepare me for
something that was unexpected
All and all
the night was truly peaceful
and the moon was full and bright
and a nice breeze was blowing
But as I continued to listen to the wind
I started to do some inner soul searching
and that was when the wind
began to sound more like someone
who was whispering to me
After that happened all I could really hear
were the sounds
of a peaceful stream
flowing in the distance
and I found the sounds to be very calming and relaxing
and extremely comforting
But for some reason on that particular night
I had a gut feeling
when the owl had flown over me two times
that it was
some kind of a warning sign
and thats when I realized that something was
going to happen really soon
And later that night
I found out that I was so right
and I didn't even know
it at that time
When I went home that night
I found out my father
had died at the same time
that the white owl crossed my path
maybe it was his way of saying goodbye to me
with one final wave of the owls white wings
I will never forget that night
in the month of June when my father died.
Now every time when I look up into the skies
I seem to always remember that night
when my dad said goodbye to me
