Syllables

 

A Mourning Dove walks

pink-footed through the sand,

unfurling soft syllables

into the September sun.



I glance up from my writing,

look through the binoculars,

and watch the breast feathers

settle back into place.



I look back at my work,

and attempt to write

my own syllables,

but they fall short.
