Drive-by Wonderings

Nearly every day

wild turkeys, twelve or so,

gather on that grassy hill

and lift their heads as we drive by.

We wonder why they picked that hill

and not some other.

Perhaps they look at us and wonder too:

“Can’t they find themselves a hill,

stop this endless search, and come to rest?

Surely we turkeys know what’s best.”
