The sight of a White-Winged Dove
Perched on my backyard wall
Brought a sense of calm and peace
On a breezy afternoon 

Its gentle cooing and graceful movements
Seemed to slow down time
Allowing me to appreciate
The beauty of nature right in my own backyard 

Watching the Dove in the warm sunlight
Was a simple yet profound reminder
To pause, breathe, and enjoy
The present moment 

It was a peaceful and serene experience
That I will always cherish
A moment of pure bliss
In the midst of everyday life
