Poem–Where Do I Belong

Where Do I Belong

Following in tow,

spaced far from the rest.ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย 

Am I one with you,
or am I alone?              
Likely, I am both.

      I never thought of goslings having personalities. Thank you for chiming in. Have a great day.

      Thank you, Dorothy. Sometimes the photos inspire me to write the poem, and other times, it’s the other way around. Have a good day.

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      Aaah, thank you, Kaushal.

  16. Kym Gordon Moore

    It’s so interesting Mary that I see the goslings around here always have that “one” doing it’s own thing from the others. They seem to be fearless of the resident red-tail hawk that flies around here. ๐Ÿฆข๐Ÿฆข๐Ÿฆข Lovely poem. ๐Ÿ’–

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      That’s interesting, Kym. I am surprised the hawk doesn’t worry them. Thank you for commenting.

      1. Kym Gordon Moore

        I know Mary. It surprises me too. Maybe they’ve worked out some kind of truce I am unaware of! LOL ๐Ÿ˜œ

        1. Mary K. Doyle

          If they can do it, why can’t we humans?

          1. Kym Gordon Moore

            There you go Mary! Isn’t that the truth? ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ˜

        1. Mary K. Doyle

          When my grandkids were babies, I wanted to nuzzle and cuddle with them. They’re like a drug I was addicted to. As you know, Cindy, they grow quickly. I hope you can enjoy every moment.

          1. Cindy Georgakas

            I know, that is the best feeling right.. I’m sure they’re gonna get tired of all the lovin on them we do and push me away soon enough๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ˜‰
