When Doves Cry

I look to the sky to see Doves fly For then I know that you’re nearby Dearest Son On the day you died For me your Mum I heard Doves cry for you my only Son But you dearest boy left your pride and joy a beautiful Girl and a handsome Boy You live on through them In all they do And I hear your thoughts In all they say As if you never went away So when doves fly I know you’re here Watching us from nearby When Doves Cry' Contest Info Sponsor Craig Cornish

Comfort found with the sight and sound of crying doves... your heart filled with sadness, briefly smiles with those thoughts. I have such empathy for your loss, Ann, and admiration for you writing of it.
