the black crow can fly as well as a dove, it just takes longer to learn.................

Do black crows dream? No doubt they do. A very profound contrast. Forever different, yet forever joined. At least in dreams. Warm regards, Sandra

This poem is inspired by “Doves dream” written by Jasmin Whyte. I commented on her poem, asking if the white dove and the black crow were one and the same. She sent me an email to thank me for my comment and explained that while she was writing the poem about the dove, she noticed a black crow looking at her, as if in encourgement. Somehow this image stuck in my mind and led me to write my poem “Black Crow”
