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
