The Dove of peace.

July poetry number eight.

 

1- The Dove of peace.

If we release the Dove of peace. 

Will the blind and hateful men of war kill her?

Where can the Dove of peace go today?

In our messy world,

the Dove of peace.

She had no place to land.

2- Fortunes gain, fortunes lost.

What will we have left?

Wise people need to keep the things they loved.

Money is necessary, happiness is the true wealth.

There’s such wisdom and power in your words. Doves are such beautiful animals and it’s true, where does the dove of peace go now? Wherever it is, it surely won’t be around civilization. Where do birds go then? There’s much fear and horror to behold nowadays, so much, so often, we’re starting to feeling like birds ourselves. Thank you for sharing such a truthful, strong piece.

There are many people who are losing their faith these days after seeing so much horror out of Ukraine. We must make our own happiness, and we must realize how fortunate we are while doing it.

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree my friend. I worry for my world.

[John the Baptist]

Right now, if the dove should fly over Ukraine, I fear she'd get taken out by a Russian missile.

[Coyote Poetry]

You are right John. The Dove is wise. Stay away from the Russian guns. Thank you for reading and the comment.

Amen to the happiness. The Dove a symbol of peace and where would she land. I would say close to the top of the nearest mountain. She probably can't get to high up for lack of oxygen. You can usually fine peace there. No cell phones, no radio, no television and if so it would cost you out of the a*s. No man would kill the dove there. They would just be shocked to see her there. Also, if a man did kill her it would probably be some mountain man desparate for food and not out of rage.
