add california towhee

in my hands
turkey
raven
mourning dove
chicken
duck
vireo
bullock's oriole
guinea fowl
american robin
anna's hummingbird
pigeon
house finch

oak titmouse
each feathered body
vibrant with the energy
only flight resonates
palpable
lingering
even in those
that have long since lost
the ability to fly
something still soars
