Pigeons Ascent
Adventure awaits, my feathered little friend.
Never will I know the distance you have flown.
Though sorrow fills my heart watching you ascend,
I know it won't be long before you are home.
You'll be on my mind from the start to the end.
Will you join other pigeons or fly alone?
Until I see you back here comfy one day,
My hope little fellow is that safe you'll stay.
