“Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.”
- Mark Twain
~Author's Notes:
The "Dove's Cooing" is a poetry form or style created by Patricia Ann Farnsworth - Simpson.
A big hole is in my shoe
My front tooth is on the loose
Poor car won’t start today
My best friend just ran away
He’d be better off as stray
3 days now we have no food
Thunder and the rain begins to fall
From the roof and down the walls
The flood rushed off with the bed
Empty pockets and broken smiles
Everyone turns away to hide
Is there any help to get
Money worries is what I have
I need some cash I pray
Can you lend me by the way
I’ll pay you back
But I can't tell you how or where and when
I lost my job again
The bad luck never ends
I have no money
Can’t buy honey
Nobody cares about me
I have no money
Can’t buy any honey
What's happening to me
Save me oh Lord
From this pain and misery
I’m losing all my hair
Life is just a despair
Save me Lord
I can’t stand this suffering any more
Feels like I'm dying
Nobody cares about me
My name is Justnoway
Better luck another day
I'm the black sheep of the family
Not a cent to call my own
No cooing dove to ease my soul
No satisfaction for the meek
Save me Lord
These awful sins are much too much to bear
Does anybody care
Save me Lord
My life is slowly coming to an end
Left without a friend
I have no money
Can’t buy honey
Nobody cares about me

The "Dove's Cooing" is a poetry style created by Patricia Simpson.
Extreme heat, mild hail at night, questions
But at dawn, those venturing at 5, see signs
That autumn is rolling in like a ball of yarn
A challenge to equanimity, healing Shalom,
For the human condition urges overthinking
With God's gift beside me, I breathe, I breathe
Doves nesting
their soft cooing
at twilight
My vices and my faults are legion
how I hate that cooing pigeon
pooping right outside my door
i cannot sleep for death entices
promises to end my vices
silencing my painful snore
and yet in vain I blindly struggle
beneath black blankets darkly snuggle
deny my essence to the core
within life's book the battle rages
against the truth of yellowed pages
scattered on the bedroom floor
she isn't here and never was
her memory a flaming buzz
is it the flame that I adore
scorched within and vilified
by endless nights wherein I've died
as pigeons cooed outside my door
the shadow of the swinging loop
the smell of two day old bird poop
it thus will end I'll bear no more
and yet I hesitate in fear
that she may somehow draw me near
engulf me in her flaming core
erase the pain of passion's past
share with me one last repast
a love, both lovers, so abhor
am I but fodder for her soul
consumed somehow yet still left whole
by a love we both deplore

*** Directions to Our House ***
To find our house, you first go
Carefully down the towering show
Of those puffed cloud stairs
Touched by golden sun-glows.
Proceed to pass the nearby hilltop’s forested grove,
Where you might glimpse the hidden homes
Of some remaining urban fox and deer.
Then, turn left and leaning your body slightly back,
Go halfway slowly down the steep hill —
Trying not to slide out of your shoes —
To the point when your balance starts to screw loose
And take another left to halt your fall. Then
Tip-toe cautiously ahead, dodging at least
Four kids running back to home base,
Chased by three dogs barking,
Watched by two toddlers in red wagons crying,
And a mailman in his white van parking
By our blooming pear tree, and trying
To stay out of the way…So, keeping all that
In your far sight,
Take fifty short steps more to arrive and be by
Our brown, wooden house
— Set between a row of others just like it —
Where a pair
Of mourning doves has chosen
Our roof fly over and perch on, devoutly cooing
To each other from every dawn til the groaning.

Thanks be to God,,,
When Aarohi smiles
the whole world brightens.
Her face lights up
like the first morning sun
breaking through clouds.
Her cooing sounds
softer than whispers,
gentler than rain
on summer leaves,
weave stories only hearts can hear.
I watch her laugh
and time stands still.
The universe pauses,
breathless,
to listen.
In those eyes
I see everything that matters:
innocence,
wonder,
the pure joy of being.
Her smile heals
what words cannot.
Her coos remind us
of the simple miracle
of existence.
Aarohi,
your smile is home.
Your voice is magic.
In your laughter,
we all become children again.
wrestle the night away
until doves coo for sunshine
thank
you
insomnia
breaths left
this noise in my head
the imperfect man that I am
thought we had a deal
ask nothing owe nothing
you give this gift
anyway
and
it humbles me
O solo mio
I am in love
with a cooing bird
a turtledove
I am so happy
That's why I sing
I've just one question ~
How the H (hold this note for a long time!)
do I hump this thing?
