NEUTRAL GREY
Suddenly they take to the air
pigeons of grey
with a stutter
with a flutter

Not flashy like friend kiskadee
they like to be
more like friend dove
the boon of love

The don their somber coats to bear
neutral wear
archetypal
acoustical

  1. I'll nver be able to wear my neutral grey again--which I do often--without thinking of pigeons in sudden noisy (but peaceful) archetypal flight!

  3. The trouble with pigeons they are always dropping in on us. I am sure Kiskadees are the prettier and more useful bird.

    Being flashy can mean a position of strength to counter the somber grey!
