a pigeon in the rain upon a windy wet ledge cooing, he smooths his feathers and tucks his head for a rest with not a care for wind or rain- oh, I wish for that kind of tranquility . . . _____________________ May 16, 2022 Poetry/Free verse/the pigeon Copyright Protected, ID 05-145-892-16 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Bite Size Poem, No 44 sponsor, Line Gauthier, Judged 05/26/2022 Honorable Mention

Oh, I do love pigeons. But I suspect you knew that already. This poem is adorable, and I can feel the truth in it, they truly are incredibly hardy and tranquil little creatures. My best to you in the contest! xomo
