Three Pigeons and a Chocolate Chip

by N J Thornton   Mar 27, 2007


A chip of milky chocolate
cast on the frigid tarmac,
rolled into pigeon's eye view.

Dodging clumsy feet,
her tattered ash wings
ushered her to the titbit,
and with a bow or two
her beak itched her to peck.

And it nibbled back.

Eager eyes mirrored hers,
as the fluffy gentleman
receded with a coo and
an offering.

Lady accepted,
and with a flattered flutter
of silver wings,
she urged a taste...

But, it was stony,

and stolen.

Her baffled beak
caught the "civil" pigeon
and his alpha brother
tucking in to a treat upon the
rooftop of Mc Donald's.

He was typically plump.

And she was still grey.

**Lol best not to ask...but it is metaphorical haha. I appoligise in advance for bemusement caused by this odd write. My mind is a field of abstractions, to say the least. Constructive criticism is welcome.
