~A Handful of Crumbs~

Crumbs gathered,

Clandestine,

From our daily buffet,

Filling our own outstretched palms,

..and others,

Along the way.

They gathered closely,

Then quickly flew away,

As the sun rode high,

And sweet music played.

A lifted arm,

Hands raised,

Offered in silent supplication,

With a  handful  of crumbs,

Brought them back,

In a magical appreciation.

One layer of that perfect day.

We danced and swayed,

As the orchestra played,

Across the plaza’s cobbled stones.

We were lifted with the sun’s rays,

And all the smiles,

That came,

And lingered our way.

And by those we gave away.

Trust,

Feathered in  shades of iridescent greens, purples and grays,

…landed gently,

And cooed softly in my ear,

Mixing sweetly with the beauty of the music,

…that I could hear.

Dancing in the sun,

Inspired by a simple handful of crumbs,

A perfect day,

When the pigeons came to dance and play.

And we,

… I …

Danced.

In the magic,

Of that perfect day.
