Silver Dove

Silver ashes in my hand Sprinkle you softly in the land Knew you not as long as wished Somber sleep for you to earth from the dish Pray your soul may find the peace in mind For you deserve to find what you left in mine You left behind so many joys and memory I place the final drop of what you are made of I think of you sweetly and place it gently Watch as it's carried off by a dove I whisper my thanks for the years of unconditional love Watching you fly off with the white bird above

Hello Raven, the Dove is one of my favourite birds. I always listen to its song. I see this bird often. Have a nice evening my friend.
