By the Way a Rock Pigeon Cooed

By the way a rock pigeon cooed Deliberately out of sight And moved me to rise from bed With my own jingle in heart And July's breath stills the pond In its disarming manner And robs the chimes of their song And warms the oleander And the way a cottontail Sits and stirs among the grass And a quail stands atop the wall And doesn't mind my presence And the storm clouds were splintered To let a golden haze form dawn - I can feel that something good And blessed is about to happen.
