~ No Greater Love Than The Dove ~
A single feather riding on warmth
Landed in the lap of my brother
As he sat naked in a yoga pose
Communing with gods and smiling
When these words came to him...
I am the true vine, my father the gardener
As my father has shown me all alone
I will not fall, I will only sing
Sing the great words of 'The way'
Happy and full of play
Giving pieces of my heart
And waiting for your refrain...
He who has an ear, let him hear
What his voice sings to the heart
She who has an ear, let her hear
What he sings to the light inside you...
For he has put his loving arms around me
And I have sprouted wings of feathers
So as I ride the golden thermals
I find myself nearer to true love
Than I ever been...
No greater Love that the dove
No greater song than his joy...

Thank you YIYAN!!.....I was hoping for precisely that response my friend!!......stay cool my friend!!.......Peace.......T xo : )
Quite relieved, Tony, that you didn't hate me ha ha ha. I know Dove is lovely, and usually associated with peace. So was surprised to see Dove is the symbol of greatest Love. Think poets do have freedom to use any metaphor the way they want. Cheers.
I could NEVER dislike another poet my friend......I have to much respect for those who aspire to wield the written word with some sort of purpose, intent, or simple desire to express that which cannot be expressed otherwise!!.....Thanx again dear poet brother!!......smiles.....T xo : )
