Dove Poem by Dave Shemeley

Let go of the past and feel the love...fly to new heights with the spirit of the dove
Look up to the clouds and the nice blue sky...no more questions of wondering why

Feel the heat, the energy of the sun...now your time is not quite done
Fly all night, under the man in the moon...you'll be there shortly, very, very soon

Paradise awaits after the grove of the tree...listen and believe in the words of thee
Thunder will come, along with the rain...you keep flying, feel no more pain
Lightning may strike and push you back...like a bird of prey, fly as if to attack

Know your worth and continue this flight...believe in yourself and in your inner light
Soar over mountains and even the sea...feel the light and love that is within thee

Thru the valley and down the slope...you are a dove and not a dope
Take cover within the caverns...no answer within the walls of the taverns
Peek at the sand and be careful of the dunes...the light within you forever blooms
When this journey has ended, it's time to go...never ever stop, let the light continue to grow
