Two Fat Pigeons

Two fat pigeons sitting on my sill Just passing by, just saying hello Perhaps just a rest before they go If I open my window I’ll scare them away It’s so nice to have company on a boring day One grayish black the other grayish white I welcome them both to stay through the night Two close friends out for a fly Could it be their lost, do they need my help Not a chirp, not a sound, not even a yelp I could offer them lunch, a cracker or two Or a handful of crumbs like you give at the zoo May and Ray, I’ll name my new friends When you fly away and this happy day ends An open invitation will certainly extend I’ll crack my window and leave a few crumbs From today moving forward we’ll always be chums
