Flight of the White Dove

Elegant white dove, graceful wings taking flight
Opalescent sheen, in the suns golden light
Feathers like gossamer, eyes shining bright
Into the air, she glides up so light

Delicate wings gently flap, pushing her through the air
She flies in the sunshine, as if not a care
The sight of her beauty, makes me stop and stare
Giving me the will to tell all, of the love we should share

For this bird is a symbol, of peace and of love
She is sent by the deities, from up above
To tell all of mankind, of how we should love
The power of peace, on the wings of a dove
