On The Wings of A Dove

Inspired by a dove on the window sill of my apartment in NYC, building a nest.

If you could only listen to my heart

Singing its own tune

I often wonder what you would hear

As if it had a voice of its own.

 

Beating softly spoken secrets

Whenever you're on my mind.

The fluttering thoughts

Of what our love really became.

 

Gone, but never forgotten

As my pen scribbles to it's own beat

Reminiscing word that were never said

How much our love really meant.

 

I'd send my words to you, wherever you are

All on the wings of a dove,

To have one more moment to cherish

And be in your arms once more.

Inspired by a dove on the window sill of my apartment in NYC, building a nest. This just suddenly came out after it flew away. Hmm...

Anna Rose, you're on fire! I can barely keep up...I listened to your heart and It has a beautiful song. Sung like the coo of the dove. This is just lovely writing and tugs at the puppet strings of the heart...I can't pick favorite lines because I love them all.
Great job from a tender heart...

"Gone, but never forgotten

One word: Amazing.

Wow. I felt your pen 'scribble to it's own beat' :D
Really, this poem has it's own beautiful feeling.
The second verse is my favourite.It feels sort of fluttery, if that makes sense.
'Beating softly spoken secrets' There's something really nice about that line. I said it in my head again and again.
I love this poem!

Damn Girl!! (excuse my language) That was amazing!!! While you were describing the beat the poem seems to pulse in my head. The words spoke such emotion to me that I dare say that this is the best poem I've read on here. Granted I've read a lot but it's definitely one the most well written piece I've seen. I felt every emotion portrayed on the page, hear the music of your heart, felt the beat coming through the pen making these words. I practically died at the last line "And be in your arms once more." Oh...my....god. So good. I can't even express it enough with just words in a review. Just imagine a person with her mouth open in astonishment and then screaming to the world to read this poem. :) Perfect. Don't change a thing or I will be upset ;) Can I rate it more than 100%?
