October rain

I sat alone on the window of my apartment. Looking out, i see the city of New York doused in rain. I have mixed feelings about the rain in october. It is just when the warmth of the summer is receding, the cold wet slap of rain comes down.I spot a pigeon flying slowly, heavy with the weight of rain in its feathers.It looks doleful and lands infront of my window. Poor chap. And, then from nowhere slams a hawk onto it.For some, it does'nt matter if the world is turning upside down. They always deem it a good opportunity to plunder. It is just their nature.

Nice post thought from the way the entry of hawk is worded it looks as if it kinda accidentally splats on ur window.
