Soft Heartbeat

On the wings of a dove

Can be found the purity and peace of love

Promised from God

Beautiful, unmistakable gentleness and honor

No pride or distrust

More than flippant and petty lust

To one alone

Not to be forgotten short of eternal rest

Breathless, untainted innocence awaiting

White, fretful impatience of dating

Divine guidance

Forever salvation from a lonely flooded world

Soft, cooing melodies of comforting sound

Strength in another through love is found

Rejuvenation in life

Affection and trust as pure as white feathers

What fools be who fall in love

As innocent as a lone white dove

Looking out at a world drowning in despair

Love as the bird offers a promise of hope and rescue
