This is a poem I wrote about forever love....
it's for my angel Jennifer


The Dove

Far off and away
in a land called forever,
There stands a rock
immense as ever.

A thousand miles wide
and just as deep,
This is a rock
a thousand miles steep.

And once a millinneum
a tiny dove takes flight,
and to this huge rock
this dove will alight.

He sharpens his beak
on this monster stone,
And then soars away
flying for home.

He flies to this rock
every one thousand years
to sharpen his beak
when a millinneum nears.

And when this rock
thus has worn away,
Just a second of forever
has past that day.

So when I tell you
forever is my love,
Just close your eyes
and imagine the dove.

Remember...write what you love..and love what you write...Terry
