Fifty doves
fly as one –
a hundred wings
on a string
.
like a cloud
caught by the sun
in a glint
and a flutter
.
before they all
disappear
to swerve in the curve
of caprice.

I’d fly on white wings,
one of joy
one of sorrow
balanced
on crosswinds
above
and below
to mate
in mid-flight
with a prayer.
