Two Doves

It’s your company
that I desire.
Along with
the gentle touch
of your hand,
at its given moment.

Two doves
spill
from heaven.
Touching and filling
the lives of two souls
meant to beat together
as one heart.

It’s God’s work
giving to those
to whom it’s given
for the fulfilling of
it’s beautiful art.

It’s such a beautiful thing;
the beholding of
two doves…
flying together,
blending into each other.
Forever!

O’
won’t you come
and let your heart
beat…
…next to mine?
