At the Feeder Again...

              #417

         For Example

Nature is anonymous

Until you learn to love

That silly, serious, soft fawn bird,

That feeding mourning dove,

 

With jerky, bobbing head that pecks,

That wing-jab to the right,

That waddle down the wide board-walk,

That clumsy, whistling flight.

 

Nature is anonymous

Until you learn to love

That creature like the sparrow

Or that goofy mourning dove.
