And now, this morning, a pigeon was cooing outside our bedroom window. Not surprising in Perth, but in Linfen where the pollution keeps birds far away, it was an extremely pleasant surprise. This was followed up by tweeting from a smaller bird – a veritable song to my ears. I missed this week’s ‘snap’ poem on Wednesday at ‘poetryetc’ so here is today’s late effort (I call it ‘coo d’etat’):
one 'coo'
and you know
the best
a holiday from
coaldust
so the birds
have come back
to visit
next
'tweet tweet'
a lovesong
to my ears
