Little Saint

Windy sunny funny days in hurry In my home I dine and slept in merry One day from blue landed on my terrace Lonely dove came ill and still to scare us. Not a vet to consult in this dark time Like a drunkard tripping falling at times When I lend my helping hand for his lift Angry murmur heard I while he makeshift. Like a waiter waited with his grand food Not a stir or happy face my guest stood No grain no drink he made for four long days Little dove saint kept on barring my prays. Prying peeping praying for his prime life Hearing, stretching wings he fly heaven safe. Honorable Mention in STRAND NO 730,any theme,any form Poetry Contest sponsored by Brian Strand

Thank you for the lovely caring poem. The little bird was lucky to find your house and family to shelter him until he felt able to fly again ...

It's frustrating Jenish when you try and help an injured bird or animal, they can't tell you. Hope you're well, stay safe. Tom

Yes..They can't tell me what the problem is..Also if they are not co-operating to our little helps.. really frustrating to wait for their destiny when the government asked to keep away from sick birds or animals.. Takecare Tom
