Constance La France Poet Kimo

Seven Pigeons

  
Seven pigeons sitting cold in the snow,
upon a street sign trembling;
and the snow is falling.

As if on cue they fly on snowy wings,
circling the city buildings;
till a safe ledge is found.

Beautiful they smooth their heavy feathers,
sitting quiet in the cold;
as snowflakes drift about.

How I wish my own weary heart could fly,
and as winter blows and roars;
I could just fold my wings.

O, but could I fly like seven pigeons,
and close my eyes to winter;
and the snow is falling.

Carrie Richards February 18, 2013 at 6:59 PM Each Kimo stands on its own, but together they create magic, melancholy and rather thoughtful images. Wonderful poetry as always, Constance!

Andrea Dietrich February 16, 2013 at 8:27 PM Constance, these five kimo together make lovely poetry. Some of the kimo can even stand alone. WEll done. You were inspired by the pigeons and the beautiful snow.

Russell Sivey February 16, 2013 at 7:15 AM There is always some sort of beauty that can be found when you take a good look at nature, even in the worst of times! You sure have displayed a great beauty here with this gorgeous write of yours! I truly loved reading this delightful poem this morning! What a powerful message you leave with us, beauty is everywhere, just look for it! Great Work!!

Richard Lamoureux February 16, 2013 at 6:36 AM Shortly your strength will be renewed by spring. You may not be aware but you fly each time you put your pen to paper and you take us along with you when we read your words. Well done with kimo x5

Constance La France February 16, 2013 at 4:55 AM I am so weary and tired of this Canadian winter, although I do admit there is a beauty to be found if one looks beyond the bitter cold.
