Nice effect: Man looks at dove. Dove looks at man. East meets West; Spy vs. Spy. (Remember Don Martin's work at 'Mad Magazine?!')...At any rate, here's a yuk for you: When I read the title, I though "Dove" was a verb! Ha, ha, Pretty funny. :) gw

You're so funny, Gershon. I hadn't noticed how that could be read differently than intended... what an inspiring image. Thank you so much for your bright visit and comment.

Thanks for your visit, Sunshine. The poem is deliberately extra subtle with emotion so the reader hopefully takes it that step further. And here you are wanting to feed the dove. You are so sweet.
