THE MOURNING DOVE

The Mourning Dove is so graceful, but sad. Why does it not have a reason to be glad? The life it owns and the life it lost, the Mourning Dove's voice is calming and soft. The love it loses and the love it gains. Is it that important or is it just in vain? Sorrow and tears are where the Mourning Dove nears. To death the Mourning Dove is merely a relief of fears.

May the mourning Dove be there, when you leave everyone behind. May no one forget, and keep you in mind. The love you shared and the gifts you beared will always have a meaning. When you die, may the doves fly high and be heard singing.
