I was working on a "Flash Friday 55" for G-Man's meme. Unfortunately, I was unable to trim this any further to suit with his rules. So, instead, I present to you my "63 Words on Thursday".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I heard the cry of Mourning Dove
rousing me from dreams
chanting hymns from high above
singing just for me
I heard the cry of Mourning Dove
sorrowful the song
her dulcet tones were trilling of
loss, of pain, of wrongs
I heard the cry of Mourning Dove
weeping in the tree
tears of healing, hope, and love
from branches fell on me

You have to let go, they are only words.

Beautiful, Polly. G-Man is such a hard-case.
Polly, I don't know what to say, other than this is hauntingly beautiful.
I'm going to admit it...this made me cry.
