Wonderful bird! nice capture, thank you :-)

i found this love poem about a dove from Ancient Egypt.

The voice of the dove is calling,
It says: "It's dayl Where are you?"
O bird, stop scolding me!
I found my brother on his bed,
My heart was overjoyed;
Each said: "I shall not leave you,
My hand is in your hand;
You and I shall wander
In all the places fair."
Love poem from Papyrus Harris 500
M. Lichtheim, Ancient Egyptian Literature.
