Graceful, winged bearer of her young--
flying back and forth,
weaving, stringing together
the fragile, sacred shelter
for parent and offspring.
With unexplained intelligence
she searches the ground
for the perfect tendril--
formed, soft, pliable.
Cautious, watchful, flying upward
through leaf and branch;
anxious, hurried,
awaiting the arrival of the future.

Beautiful poem! We have several doves, well sometimes as many as ten, that come to our bird feeder. I love to listen to them.
