Feathers Fair

Short and long
preened
Warm and pretty

She has a radiant glow a call gathering up seed
Nutrients consumed
Food from grain

Predator and Prey
Swooping to the ground
feathers strewn all around
Nutrients consumed

The cycle of life
Just the scattered feathers remain of the turtle dove
The Hawk flies up to perch
Cleaning talons and then away
To live for another day
