Love on a rooftop

She sat on the chimney stack

He nestled close beside

Silently they shared the space

Still and dewy eyed

Busy blue skies frame their pose

Corvids squawking overhead 

A light wind ruffling feathers

And still they sit, with nothing said

We watch this silent pairing

As birds around them frame the sky 

And we wonder what they’re thinking

As life slowly passes by
