My Beautiful Dove

rrodriguez

My beautiful dove

From  the mountains of Urayoán,

The one with grey-winelike plumage,

with the Caribbean deep-blue eyes;

I look on the dirt roads,

the sanctuary of the mountains,

the Savanna of sugarcane fields

And not seeing you there,

Perched on the Orange tree,

Neither in the water pond

Refreshing and crystalline;

My hope did not die

To see you again my dove,

With the Caribbean deep-blue eyes

burning with love.

    Read slowly this poem with its symbol of a beautiful dove shows great tenderness. I love the positive ending on hope. A lovely romantic verse.

              Fantastic to hear, me also
              I\\\'m concentrating on it and
              Not writing much poetry
              At the moment. But finding
              Time to read and comment

              Time really well spent..

              Gracias Amigo Mio ~ My MPS symbol is "Una Paloma Blanca" and now you know why ! For me the symbol of Love is always a "Snowy White Dove". Elegant poem with a beautiful message ~ Thanks for caring BRIAN

                Thank you Brian... my dove is grey-winelike with deep-blue eyes. They are originally from Puerto Rico. Thank you for reading my poem.
