One

I found the moon
at the cemetery
this morning
I teared up
watching two mourning doves search for their breakfast
I wanted so much
to help them
for reasons
I can not explain
They appeared lost
Seeking
But
Perhaps I only need to help myself
Perhaps I’m the seeker
Still
I was grateful for their company
Both for myself
And my father buried
In the earth
