Danced on Air
(Couplets)




They danced on air,
this mated pair.

From earth they'd fling
in a graceful swing.

With feathered flair
they rose to midair.

Two geese on the wing,
an ordinary thing.

I became aware
of their presence there.

They owned the sky
as they flew on by.

It was such a sight
of two birds in flight,

As they hung overall,
I was in their thrall,

compelling the height
of my delight.

Their responses flow
when cold winds blow.

When I heard their call,
it was late late fall.

Their instincts know
when it's time to go.

So I waved goodbye
with a heavy sigh.
