Sonnet

Sonnet

From far, back I have come
To their surprise, I brought a dove, 
Happy they were, everyone at home, 
And a nest they weaved for her, what a love! 
My brother, a smith, made her a golden ring. 
Love and compassion led her out of bond
To the sky she soars up — her song to sing.
Between us no frictional touch, but fine fond;
In her crops-pasturing afoot she walks, 
While our eyes tendering on her steps, lest treading a hook
For we all feel unease to a cause she crawls, 
And our heart pounds to the eagle  nasty look;
Always she roosts in her nest to avoid the rain, 
And when get wet, in the sun she stands to drain.
