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

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?”
