.....pure soft spoken beauty

One of the first things
we hear of a morning,
are the sweet
mourning
sounds of
a Mourning Dove.
All through the many years we've
lived in our home, here in Florida,
they've made themselves right
at home in our garden.
Year in and year out they've
nested in our Palm trees,
bathed in the birdbath,
had little babies
and claimed our garden as their own.
They are lovely to look at,
and I believe beautifully made by God.
This afternoon, we watched
as a very young
Dove
enjoyed wild bird seed
on one of the feeders.
The sweet simplicity of
that single moment
with nature,
provided for us pure
soft-spoken beauty.
Blessings.....Dee Dee
