Feral Lady

By Kat Myrman

“Birds” …painting by Rodrigo Enrique Luff

Feral Lady

she feeds the pigeons everyday
underneath a great oak tree
bits of bread and stale saltines

rain or shine, whatever the weather
feathered friends depend on her
she feeds the pigeons everyday

this is where she lays her head
feral as a woodland creature
underneath a great oak tree

shaded, sheltered, she’s not homeless
nature sates her deepest need
bits of bread and stale saltines

She has a purpose in life, I love this. Those who look lonely may not necessarily be so. (Well, look lonely in our world.)

  We often make assumptions when observing from the outside…things are not always what they seem. 😉
