Gliding Dove

love
this dove
glides above
the hush of night
on its endless flight
to share this song of plight
my voice tarried on night's wings
soul's symphony to you it brings
this melody within my heart's strings




(not for contest)

Thank you my friend I wrote this one first then asked the judge if we could mix the rhymes up he said no he wanted mono rhyme so I kept the last 3 lines to build the other poem but this one is my favorite of the two ... hugs :). Good morning Chris
