The Brown Dove

A tear rolled out and froze......
looking at your picture one morn.
I sadly recalled a day
when a brown dove came along.

Ever so boldly..
ever so meek.
Eyes ever searching..
for something, someone, it seeked.

No one would ever know
what that brown dove meant to me
for ever since it came and went away,
It's flight, your flight, forever remain in my memory.

Through the window by dawn,
spread its wings in such array.
Out the window by early morn..
Thats when i knew You came and took him away.

We shared a love,
a brotherly love so divine.
My heart held your heartbeat
as yours held mine.

Now my heart won't let yours go..
for it's beating now, for us both.
It's where I seek and cherish you
underneath my heart's coat.

Friends and family surround me
where else can my consolation be?
Come sun or rain, day or night
you're not here with me.

You're somewhere looking upon me
From the Heavens up above.
Know one day we'll meet again
on the gentle wings of a dove.

The strongest links sure can be broken,
for theres a power greater than all things.
Many took flight, many are flightless
but one by one, He'll surely mend our wings.
