AND THEN...

A few doves I see, with tidings great and small
Footsteps carry me past them
As I stretch out my longing hands
My gaze fixed on the sole one
And then the warmth touches my hands
The elixir of life, its blissful feel
A stroke on my lips I can never forget
The depth in those eyes, the innocence
A rainbow across the vastness of life
I carry the warmth and togetherness
Hope and belief kindling my heart
As I return to the doves.
