spread your broken wings, dove
flap them countlessly,
take off and forget about me,
you can leave,
i don't mind,
spread your love around my dove,
don't let anything grasp your broken wings once more,
be love.
E A Spain Feb 2018
A treasure is unlike a present
Because it is not simply handed to you
It is a rare and valuable reward
That you must spend time and energy to pursue

And once you've sought out and
Acquired your gems that sparkle and glow
You must take care and protect your treasure
In something hidden such as a trove

In this trove she'll sit and wait
To be gazed upon and loved
Just make sure to appreciate her
Or else she'll escape and fly away like a dove

See, a treasure trove is like a safe
And not like a cage or a drawer
You must take out your treasure sometimes for show
And admire her all the more

a grey dove now coos
on the deep cream painted fence
neath a light cloud sky

Message… by Jessie

Far away on planes not known,
Lingers, congestive thoughts of love

Pierce the heart with words not used
Sent on the wings of a snow white dove

Wrapped up tight in the soul of a man
And released slowly into air

The wings sail through the wispy clouds
Opened wide and feathers flared

Leaving a residue of star dust trails
While racing hard and fast

Fate is set in motion
The dyes have all been cast

Landing gently, at its intendeds feet
The message finely brought

Deciphered through the help of love
Words you’ve always sought

As you read, with bright blue eyes
The message of how I feel

Know it comes because of you
And my heart that you did steal

She is the center, connected
She loves beyond love
Yet I'm perplexed
By this dove
Whose wings, divine
Flutter in the fading light

She dives
Though she is so precise
In her flight
That her gentle body, white
Paints the night sky

Now blind

No stars
Not in front
Not behind
Just her
Always there to shine
Brighter and longer
Than any heavenly body I might find
I'm not sure what to do now.
She's so far away
But I still love to watch her fly
Amoni Fuller Jan 2018
She looks at life with longing eyes
It holds her, flies
For like a dove
Her speech preaches peace
And love
I love what I know and I know what I love

The Dove flies through
Gets trapped in gates
The Raven comes out
Gets ignored

The Dog runs through
Gets trapped in the gates
The Wolf comes out
Gets ignored

The man walks through
Gets trapped in the gates
The Man comes out
Gets ignored


The Gates of Hell
