The Carrier Dove Its been some time since I've flushed the dove And sent a message of fervent love. Its been some time and the mist has not cleared I hope the dove can escape interfere. The message is small or the dove will not fly And fly he must above the cloud of my sigh. The distance is short but inhibit is great For he must overcome a cerebral state. He has no arrows nor a cupids bow Nor a magic potion to make it so. But carries few words from the red of my heart Which I think is enough to make me a start. Ancient words, in every language I know As common to all, as the falling of snow Falls from the lip like fresh mornings dew It's simply the words of, "I love you." The message is to keep but the dove is not toll For the dove merely wields on the wings of my soul. |

see the dove, child, overhead on high it flies on with a message of love 'cross the deeply dark leaden skies God shall keep it up above for it has a message of three words alone "I love you" to massage the ease of one unknown... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Lovely thoughts here Sy.  LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

It's simply the words of, "I love you." in my native Cherokee. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
