Fly My Love
Once a raven was sent to fly.
And flew and flew but didn't die.
It had nowhere on earth to go.
But it just kept flying to and fro.
Until the waters finally dried.
But we don't know when it finally died.
Next a dove was sent away.
She came back, she couldn't stay
Too much water on the land.
Noah gave her a helping hand.
Brought her back into the safety ark.
And no, he never sent out a lark.
He sent the dove again in seven days.
An olive leaf plucked off the Bible says.
She brought to Noah at the end of the day.
Which gave them hope with a golden wray.
Again in seven days he sent her out.
Never to return, which made Noah shout.
"Fly My Love"
