This new poem was written by Patricia a few days, as she thought of Dona Lou's references to flight in several poems. - poetheart 08/19/02
A Lady Dove, of radiant light
Soars every evening and into the night
Her flight of warmth and prose
Makes herself happy
As she reaches to those
In need of hope
In need of love
In need of escape
She's a saving dove
That has flown into our souls
And will always be
A soft teaching creature
Who allows us to see
Senses and color
Through perceptive eyes
With no deception
No pretense or lies
Flying high now, far from her nest
She is at peace
And has left us her best
Words to inspire
Our earthly days
To carry her words
And be touched by her ways
Thank you, sincerely,
Sweet lady bird
For your every kindness,
Your every word.
