Such a fantastic poem! I think I can relate. There's a magnificent pine tree in my back yard...a nesting ground each year for some fine bird family.
I understand MJ. You live close to Nature, so you can relate. It is a great feeling of happiness to wake up to the songs of birds in the morning. And..

You've heard of: chicken soup for the soul. Well, when I was 14 months old, pigeon soup had saved my soul. Medicine wasn't able to save my life. But an ancient naturopathic remedy did the trick.
Hi Richard, I am grateful to you. About the health benefits of the soup, you are the better person to judge

Pigeon is the symbole of peace and love; the birds in the life bring the solid feelings of natural freedom; nice to read the poem
The marvellous symbol of Love and Peace, Pigeon, is so common around human habitation that we tend to ignore them. But, the family of pigeons is humongous.
Lovely to read that these birds are dwelling in your new apartment, but I imagine what a filth they made and the smells, but very precious and loveliest to know that they may stay.5 Stasr Full. Fascinatingly written
You are true about the filth the pigeons create. But, we put up with the cleaning exercise, after every roost, as we love the poor birds… And we did not keep cats as long as we lived the apartment
A lovely poem Unnikrishnan, you have hot, hotter and hottest, I have wet, wetter and soaking where I live. Enjoy your new appartement.
Wow! Thank You, David. I love the wet places. My place of birth, Kerala is again, Wet…Wetter…Wettest.. great!
It is a pleasure reading your comments on the poem. Here in my native Kerala again, it is wet-wetter-wettest. So I know
Pigeons are an important bird throughout history! Thanks for bringing more attention to them!
Very true.Pigeons have been friends of man for at least five thousand years. Thank You Rob
