VJs Weekly Challenge – Repercussions

“Death is not the opposite of life but a part of it.” Haruki Murakami
Reper-cussions Soft percussion tears, sombre funeral beat, who will mourn her choice of passage or dare to judge the repercussion that is her ending or, perhaps, her beginning, this dove at peace, but it was I who left the door ajar and the window closed. ©Paul Vincent Cannon
Oh! Poor dove. Still, I’m surprised she came in.

Nice opening quote by Murakami. We all have something to feel guilty about, but it is the way of things. Maybe next time, when you leave the window open and the door shut, the same will happen….

I think the soft thud of a bird flying against glass stays with you. The memory still makes me sad, though I don’t remember any fatalities. Take care, Paul. ❤

The fact that it was an accident doesn’t make it any less upsetting and quite rightly the dove deserves a poem to mark her life and death.

Sad poem but as usual a deeper meaning – a female Bronze Wing Pigeon by the way 😉
