Another seed, bug or worm to
restore the spirit of a
startled nesting dove
eying me from distance
her weakened fledgling
another unforeseen sequence
to pleasured stroll
trampling seeds, bugs and worms,
disturbing nests
a small plague to nature
has this moment of understanding,
acceptance of the Great Spirit\'s plan
to return all to soil
