Take Two Poles Josie

before she passed & on so many occasions, my Mum would comment on the sound pigeons and doves would make when courting ....

Take these two poles Josie
and take note too ..
For these ones are perfect
just like you
and our love is my darling ..
Take these two poles Josie
and I shall
build us a little house over
the porch
close to the sky somewhere ..
Yes, do take
these two poles Josie my love
and though we
may both be a long way up ..
I’m right here
beside you, should you ever
dare fall ..
Just be sure I will catch and
shall love you
for ever and always my little
turtle dove ..
Do take these two poles Josie

Just glancing in here but what can I say Neville...this is true heart touching poetry, the kind that can still be tasted long after it's read. I love this write which expresses so much love. Where do you place them Neville...those you've lost? I have such a hard time making peace with death myself since my son...it troubles my every waking moment, I'm constantly searching lol and have a hard time sometimes just trying to stop myself phoning the police to report him missing!!! Anyway...this is beautiful and I'm so glad I caught it X
