he is slow and she is quick
this pair of Cooper’s Doves
in for an afternoon backyard drink

he is large she small too young
to lift her tail and squat for him
but he is slow and persistent

dip her head he tries to pounce
short hop to the wall he’s right behind
up to a small tree branch too slight for him

rest then back for a quick drink
here he comes, again
“Do you come here often?”

He's been pestering the poor dear for a week. Just won't take the hint or he's too fat to go after an older one.

persistence usually pays off inthe end.Experience counters youthful enthusiasm
