My Dove

Lovely mourning dove of my dreams
I long for you with all my heart
Cannot bear to be apart
Be we together surfing moon beams
Or soaring high chasing sun rays 
Manoeuvering playfully in the sky
In pursuit of every butterfly
I need you all my nights and days
Forever darling I will be true
My heart to you I surrender
Tell me at least I’m a contender
I offer only true love entre nous

Congratulations Line: We had doves in Hawaii and now we have moved away, we don’t. I kind of miss the sounds. A nice love poem. SuZ

Ahh, a gentle lovely write Line. I was pointing out a morning dove to someone just yesterday. Although... I used to have one cooing outside my window at 5am and it used to drive me crazy!! lol
