A pigeon sits singing of softness
she sings of cotton clouds
peace in all its calming ways
white with all the doves
freedom with a dove
she sings of cotton clouds
cooing without the falling rain
talking without an inch of grey in her voice
pigeon seems to be talking in white talking of doves
singing of all that lives without the grey tired moods
a voice of soft gentleness
a voice that comforts soothes and leaves us smiling
listen to the pigeon
she’s singing of cotton clouds again

A fine write V.
I wish little children wouldn't scare them away.
I kept thinking a pigeon was on a roof each morning. But it was an air-conditioning thingy! Doh!
Lol 🙂 birds like roofs . I saw two outside my window about a week ago walking side by side .. honestly think they are lovely birds ..
Yeah I’m not sure why some children do that .. I’ve seen them walking around the pavements in town before .. but it doesn’t always seem like others take much notice of them
Thanks for the comment
I love the way you have used white to convey the feeling of peace in this poem. So many mornings on my walk I hear the gentle cooing of a mourning dove, so lovely and soft. Once again your imagery is splendid!
Hi Bella )) it is lovely and soft , I agree . I keep hearing them too ., honestly think they are lovely birds .
Thanks so much for the kind words on my poem
I think it’s such a soft comforting sound
We hear woodpigeons every morning when we awake, it is an uplifting sound.
