Males trumpeting a call,
rendering song waves composed of finely tuned horns.
Females reciprocate,
creating a symphony of lovers’ delight,
affectionately achieving a lifelong mate.

Distinguishing features,
Incandescent grains of sand cover white beaches.
At her feet rests a gift,
the shimmering stone presented in reverie,
affectionately attaining a lifelong mate.

Bonds strengthen with bowed heads,
respectfully marching in line around the nest.
Warmth surrounds their young,
male restlessly awaits the return of the mom,
affectionately heart sick for a lifelong mate.

The female’s homecoming,
trumpets blare triumphantly, they find their partner.
Seasons return again,
song waves reappear, finely tuned horns calling out,
affectionately discovering a lifelong mate.

Old flames rekindling,
recognition in tunes of the endearing calls.
As the cycle repeats,
lovers dance in rhythm with the joyful symphony.
Affectionately preserving a lifelong mate.
