This is a poem of loss and the beginning (I hope) of recovery. Each of the two line segments lasts only a few seconds; the whole poem probably occurs in about 12 seconds. That timing is important because it shows there's no time to think this scene through, to make intellectual sense of it. Things happen so fast - one moment you are the observer, then next a participant, finally the main actor because the dove is too dazed for action and besides it seeks comforting from you. You can't replace what's lost but you can offer comfort. I take this poem to be symbolic because if you replaced the dove with a human being, you'd have a poignant drama.
